Hello list,
an info for the enthusiastic:
I have played a little with my new cd/dvd/whatnot writer and just had this
idea (see pic). Well then, DVD+RW makes it possible.

The worst thing is not the atime update (as cdrecord-prodvd manual says), but
the initial mount / log replay which seeks a lot more.
Commands used were:
cdrecord-prodvd -dev=/dev/hdc -format -v
mkreiserfs -f /dev/hdc
(Looks like the =/dev/hdc method works best (besides =ATAPI:x,y,z or
=ATA:x,y,z), even though cdrecord bleaks about it.)
And the question aside: is writing CD-RW in packet mode also supported in 2.6,
like DVD+RW is?

Just wondering: how many write cycles do DVD+RW media support?

Honestly I do not know, but I hope they can at least sustain as much as CD-RW
can (usually 1000x). Plus, it's for DVD+RW, it always uses packet mode, and as
such I damn hope that DVD+RW manufacturers keep in mind that a byte position
might be overwritten more than 1000 times.

Isn't that what DVD-RAM is for? IIRC, it's overwrite count is 100,000.

Now that's "just" 100 times more than a CD/DVD. However, the buffer cache is a
really nice thing to have -- especially on such media.
