Hi
Can anyone help me here please.

How do you do incremental writing to a cdrw under linux.
I have a cdrw which was formated under windows .. used the INCDFS file system according to the properties report
in wondows.
With this I can then write, and delete files from the cd .. within
windows .. as if it was a large floppy or removable hard disk.
Under Fedora Core 4 the disk mounts ok and I can read the contents at anytime .. but I cannot do the incremental writing
.. I have looked up linux references to this INCDFS using google and not found anything of significance.
Any pointers to making cdrw work more adeptly would be appreciated.

My 64Mb and 128 MB usb memory sticks mount fine under fedora core 4 and I can delete and write to the devices ..
deleting I think puts the data into a trash directory .. but when
I empty trash it does not seem to free space on the device ..
also .. although ".Trash" appears when you mount it in Windows .. and you can delete the files and reclaim the space
there .. .Trash does not appear in the Linux FS .. even using say mc which would normerly show ".--" directories .
Also formating the flash memory does not seem straight forward .. I
tried mounting with fdisk and deleting all partitions, making a
siingle FAT32 partition .. then using format to format it ..
unsuccessfully ... are there any tricks here? Formating under windows
seems straight forward.
Thanks
Stephen
