A disk can be formatted at any time on Windows (in use or not). AFAIK Windows never checks to see if there are open files or anything else before starting the format. I assume that you are saying you have to unmount it under Linux when you are formatting the CDRW disk. That has been the case in all the different flavors of *nix for as long as *nix has been around (or at least as long as there have been CDRWs in use on *nix). You cannot format _any_ filesystem on _any_ flavor of *nix that I am aware of when the device is mounted. > -- > Antonio Montagnani > Skype : antoniomontag >
