Yesterday evening I made a coaster again with cdrecord :( It's at least 
the third of such coasters already.

The problem: I give an image to cdrecord. Cdrecord computes remaining 
sectors, this is positive (about 1255 yesterday). Everything is OK, start 
writing. Writing successfull. Fixating. Boom! No room for fixating, no 
seek complete. The disk is too full for fixating.

I understand that cdrecord checks available data space an not the space 
needed for fixating. Still, I as the user want it to check whether the 
write would be successful, not whether the data part would fit.

Is it possible to make cdrecord account the space needed for fixating too?

If not, why?

Is there a certain fixed amount of data needed for fixating (so I could 
add it by hand and see it its larger than sectors remainig)?
