That sounds like 'blank' does some kind of lowlevel formatting
on the CD-RW. But for putting raw images on it I do not need any
formatted media, right?
2. Q: I had a CD-RW which was used under Windows before and I
wanted to erase all contents with the -blank command. It never
worked. After issueing this command on the CD-RW I could throw
it away. It wasn't even useable under Win any more.
So I did not dare to use CD-RWs under Linux again.
