Hi there, 

does anybody have an idea about the usage of dvd-ram-media for
superbay-slim?

i would like to use it as backup-media, but i'm not quite sure if i've
done it right. and because it's about my backup, perhaps someone can
confirm my strategy:

1. make a filesystem on the dvd-ram: i've used udf via
   mkudffs --media-type=dvd-ram /dev/hdc

2. create a fstab-entry for it:
   /dev/hdc        /mnt/dvdram     udf
noatime,rw,user,noauto,gid=1000,uid=1000,umask=003,unhide,utf8
0       0

3. mount it && write to it && umount it

i'm especially interessted in the filesystem-specification for the
dvd-ram. is it correct to use udf? are there any cons or pros?

thanks in advance,
thomas
