For your purposes, I would suggest that you don't use a filesystem on the disk and just write the raw log file out, or maybe a tar data stream. If you pipe it though dd to reblock you should be able to write it directly to the cd-r without pktcdvd.

After looking at all the dates on the docs I can find, that seems to
be the latest consensus. However, having browsed through pktcdvd.c,
it would seem there are several acknowledgments of/facilities for -R
media, so again I ask - what lacks? Additions to the pktcdvd driver,
userspace tools, or something else entirely?
