It seems this bug affects SATA CD/DVD burning as well, that means it is very 
likely that you burn saucers instead of usable disks. At the middle of disk 
writing the following entries appears in system log:

As I saw red hat has a patched kernel with which you can turn the PMP
feature off with pmp=0. The error message improvement has been
integrated into Ubuntu so we are notified now, but unfortunately telling
pmp=0 to the kernel does nothing at all.
