The pktcdvd driver is of help only with operating a rw-filesystem on formatted CD-RW (miserably slow) or formatted DVD-RW (annoyingly slow). > Media summary: 1 session, 2042848 data blocks, 3990m data, 0 free > sr0 11:0 1 2G 0 rom > I feel cheated :( I am wondering how this misperception can happen. Probably the info comes from function blkdev_get_size() in https://sources.debian.org/src/util-linux/2.34-0.1/lib/blkdev.c/?hl=102#L83 which looks like ioctl(fd, BLKGETSIZE64, bytes) is the call which does the trick. (Cute: https://sources.debian.org/src/util-linux/2.34-0.1/libblkid/src/probe.c/?hl=815#L815 provides a preventive workaround for the TAO CD Read-Ahead bug. Such a thing should sit in the kernel. ) Have a nice day :) Thomas
