Missing files on Joliet CD-ROMs

I'm experiencing missing file issues on a commercial Joliet
CD-ROM. Kernel is 2.2.1, using scsi host adapter emulation for
the ATAPI CD-ROM drive. CD-ROM drive is Hewlett-Packard CD-Writer
Plus 8100.

On sucessive mountings of the same disk, I get the following
outputs from 'find /mnt/cdrom | wc -l':

9790 corel.list.1
9790 corel.list.2
9724 corel.list.3 (-o nojoliet)
9668 corel.list.4
9661 corel.list.5
9722 corel.list.6

In the case I investigated, (2->3), the missing files in 3
seem to be confined to a few directories, one with ~80 files,
and the other with ~300 files.

I have not seen this problem with Rockridge disks, and since
I write ~5 a week and then verify them, I figure I would have
noticed.
