Hi, I apologize for mailing you off-list, especially as I can not answer your question, but as you say in your mail yourself, there aren't many people in the Linux world who knows about these things. I have a BD-R drive and a few disks that I would like to use for backups, and was wondering what your thoughts are on the safety of this - is it a bad choice of media? What about R vs RW disks, and what file system should I choose? Again, I'm sorry about the off-list mail, but hope you would give me some quick insights as one who knows these things. :) Petter -- "I'm ionized" "Are you sure?" "I'm positive."
