Well, it depends on the way the files that are on the original disk are
copied.  Most cdrom writing programs that I've seen on Windows *do* have
an option to do 'image copying' or something like that.

If your friend has copied the "files" of the original disk on his disk
and then used his program to write the files on the disk produced, then
he quite probably messed up all the RockRidge information present in the
original disk :/
