Hello all, I just spent the afternoon hunting up all the infos, HOWTO's and man pages that weren't installed on my initial installation. Spent quite a time with the CDROM,CD-R HOWTO's. That left me with another question or two. I can read CD's CD-R's, but no CD-RW's does that mean that they are automatically in the UDF format?? Or are they merely not finished tracks? My ultimate goal is to use the CD-RW as a big floppy to archive data to. I hope "dump" and "restore" will use the CD-RW someday, if I can figure out all the ins and outs. Thanks for any help!
