I'm not sure. I know it allows the use of multiple CDs for CD cloning, but something I read on the home page suggested that support for multiple CDs in all burning tasks will come in version 0.12 (the current version, and the version available in Debian, is 0.11). As for compression, k3b supports all the options made available by mkisofs, which presumably includes the -z option: -z Generate special RRIP records for transparently com- pressed files. This is only of use and interest for hosts that support transparent decompression, such as Linux 2.4.14 or later. You must specify the -R or -r options to enable RockRidge, and generate compressed files using the mkzftree utility before running mkisofs. Note that transparent compression is a nonstandard Rock Ridge extension. The resulting disks are only transpar- ently readable if used on Linux. On other operating systems you will need to call mkzftree by hand to decom- press the files.
