Thanks for the feedback, I'll adjust my cheat sheet appropriately. I upgraded my 3.4-STABLE system straight to 4.0-STABLE, and was unaware that /usr/share/examples/atapi is now bare and that HP CDRWs had trouble with 4.0-RELEASE. (BTW, I could never get my HP 8250i to burn with 3.4, although an older 7200i at the office works fine...) I may spend some time this weekend working on a really *usefull* script, at the very least to run a bunch of backups out of one script file (I have 7 different ones at work :-( ). One thing I'd really like to figure out is how to use mkisofs to span multiple CDs without manually tinkering with it...
