I use:
	mkisofs -v -JraT -o data.cd <path>

Where:	J gives Joliet extensions for long filenames [Windows]
	r gives RockRidge extensions (for Unix)
	a is all files regardless of extension
	T creates TRANS.TBL files that some things use to map long
		names to names as they are on the CD.

Gives total compatibility ... I've yet to have a CD fail with these options, 
which subsequently get written with:

	cdrecord -v speed=4 dev=0,3,0 -data data.cd
