Well DVD-R and DVD-RW yes.  Totally.
On media that is either 120mm or 80mm just fine.
But not DVD+RW or DVD+R .

Layer break ? Is that how dual layer works ?  One needs to make two large
ISO-9660 files and burn them or is there even a filesystem spec for the new
blue laser larger capacity DVD media ?  I would really like to burn some
larger media formats.

Ah yes .. I remember this discussion clearly and I will need to research the
mail lists to get the details.  I think at this point we need to diverge the
star offering in CSWstar to Solaris 8 and 9 compatible and then a separate
kit for Solaris 10 and Nevada.  These last two need to be built on Solaris
10 with ZFS support and with the ACL issue in ZFS addressed.  Somehow.

I will try to build the latest star on Solaris 8 and 9.

However this :

$ which star
/bin/star
$ /bin/star --version
star: star 1.5a73 (i386-pc-solaris2.11)

Is the revision on SchilliX 0.5.2 and it may be the most feature rich
version that you have out there.  But not for Sparc.  I will need to build
this on snv_38 with ZFS support.
