Another CDROM Question

[Martin G. McCormick]

	I am about to buy a CDRW drive for a Linux system and am
a bit uncertain about something.

	I am familiar with being able to mount CDROM's from
/dev/hdc, for instance, and then reading all files and
directories like any normal file system.

	If I burn a CDRW disk, do I have to make a new image of
the whole disk each time I want to add something new or delete an
old file or is there some technique that resembles floppy or
hard-drive access in which one simply adds new files to the
system until there is no more space.

	I was thinking of possibly using CDRW's for backup
purposes, hopefully with dump and restore.

	It goes without saying that I will also want to make
audio CD's and CDROMS to archive my old open-reel tapes, etc.
