Thanks, but that's not what I was asking. What I want to know is, if
I were writing a volume management system, and I wanted to make
sure it didn't interfere with a write in progress, is there any way
for it to find out if a disk is being written without disturbing a
write in progress?
If this is impossible, then for the volume management not to
interfere with cdrecord, cdrecord must tell the volume manager that
it is writing.
