Here is what I have tried
# /etc/fstab: static file system information.
#
# <file system> <mount point>   <type>  <options>       <dump>  <pass>
proc            /proc           proc    defaults        0       0
/dev/hda3       /               ext3    defaults,errors=remount-ro 0       1
/dev/hda4       none            swap    sw              0       0
/dev/hdc

(with the dvd-ram media installed)


rick007@g4:~$ sudo mount -t hfsplus /dev/hdc /media/cdrom0
mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/hdc,
      missing codepage or other error
      In some cases useful info is found in syslog - try
      dmesg | tail  or so

rick007@g4:~$ dmseg | tail
bash: dmseg: command not found
rick007@g4:~$ sudo mount -t hfs /dev/hdc /media/cdrom0
mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/hdc,
      missing codepage or other error
      In some cases useful info is found in syslog - try
      dmesg | tail  or so



Syslog
May 13 02:17:18 localhost kernel: [89790.958204] HFS+-fs: unable to find 
HFS+ superblock
May 13 02:19:15 localhost kernel: [89907.963590] VFS: Can't find a HFS 
filesystem on dev hdc.
--------------------------

Again, if I put a blank dvd-ram, with the ufs (universal format) it 
loadeds it, and copies to it.

Also, while I at this, I do have a second hard drive, shown in file browser,
its identical to my first hard drive, however, I want to format that drive,
as fat32 just for storage. ( HOW )
