I know I didn't. Please define "format a CDRW".
Well its discouraging since I expalined it several times. I want to do
to the CD-RW the same thing you do when you formatted a floppy. Once it
is formatted you could mount it and use it like you use a hard drive.
Copy files to it using cp, remove files from it using rm, etc.
That is not a definition of what is done. There are several things
which it might mean. None of them would allow one to do the kinds
of things one can do with a floppy, AFAIK. There is nothing one
can do to the CDROM which will cause the device drivers to know
to burn more stuff on the CDROM. You'd have to replace a significant
portion of the kernel level interface to the disc to accomplish
something which emulated that.

I can explain it for you, but I can't understand it for you.
