R/W mounting is probably not that big of a problem, but the entire driver is IMHO not written with the idea in mind that data on the medium might change at some point while the medium is mounted. So this will probably end up in a rewrite of the cd9660 driver. -- cheers, J"org joerg_wunsch@uriah.heep.sax.de -- http://www.sax.de/~joerg/ -- NIC: JW11-RIPE Never trust an operating system you don't have sources for. ;-) To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-scsi" in the body of the message
