I don't know. When I created the disc, it seemed odd to me that
the default was "Fixate". ISTM that one wouldn't want to fixate
after writing to a multi-session. BUT when I deselected that option,
a pop-up warned me that it might create a disc which was unusable.

I have tried

	# mount -O session=<n> /mnt/cdrom

with <n> in the range 0 to 4 inclusive, and always see the files
from the second session I created, but none of the files I put
on the disc with the first session.

You have found the bank of Larn.
I can explain it for you, but I can't understand it for you.
I speak only for myself, and I am unanimous in that!
