- Just want to correct something here.
- You don't really mean Multi-Session..Multi-Session has only a meaning
- with multiple writes to that CD. The CDRom driver or the software has
- to map the multiple session rootblocks on one root-block, so the software
- sees the new contents of the cdrom.
-
- You mean Multiple-Volumes on the CDRom. ISO9660 supports something like that
- but by now i haven't seen any CD that has multiple-volumes and don't know
- any Amiga ISO9660 filesystem that supports that.
- Anyway...what's the problem to mix NetBSD with AmigaOS on one volume ?
- I can't see one.
