hi andy!

thank you very much for this hint, it was very helpful!

a little addition to your meaning about the interoperatibily of the restore-mechanism:

you wrote:

it is not absolute interoperable, because IRIX (tested on v6.5) interchanges the 
sequence of the splits, so that it one have to take care about that!

Just read the info and use a DVD enabled version of cdrecord instead:

Would you have a guess why it is looking for DVD capability using a CD 
medias? I use (standard) cdrecord to burn CD in a DVD writer, and I have 
not seen this behaviour.

It's not my e-mailer which composes HTML-junk.
It's not that I couldn't read this mail.
My versions of kmail are able to render HTML-junk
or only render the plain-text part if available.
It is the simple fact that M$ ship their junkware
with bogus defaults, which in this case unnecessarily
blow up messages without any single bit of extra information.
This wastes space and time.
Some mailing lists will not even archive those mails.
 

Talk about waste... you post an off-topic troll to complain about waste?

But why do I have to use a DVD-enabled version in order to burn a CD???
(anyway, after work I will try it of course)

Asuming you have a 16x DVD writer (25 MB/s), I would also asume that
you have no less than 1 GB if RAM. 10 seconds is just 250 MB..

A decent OS should cache that for you if there is 1 GB of RAM.

Just read the info and use a DVD enabled version of cdrecord instead:

Ligo-te para a semana

2004-10-28 Thread teresa_benvinda

Joana,


Obrigado pelo teu convite, mas no próximo fim-de-semana vou com o João
para o Minho.
Descobrimos agora o ChequeHotel, que tem hotéis quase a metade do preço
normal, e vamos aproveitar.
Vamos para o Hotel Monte Prado, em Melgaço, conhecer o Gerês e as praias
do norte.
Vê lá que esta gente do ChequeHotel tem, por exemplo, um hotel novinho em
folha nas termas de S. Pedro do Sul a 18€ por noite para nós os dois; e,
em Tavira, um hotel de 4 estrelas a 24 €, também para duas pessoas. É
fabuloso!

Está atenta ao ChequeHotel que tem hotéis em todo o país e promoções
excelentes. O site deles é: www.chequehotel.pt.



Para a semana ligo-te.
Beijinhos
Teresa
