Our point was that if you are only saving a single file, you do not need to "format" the DVD, not as UDF, not as ISO, nor as anything at all. Ie, you can burn it "raw". You simply go to k3b and tell it to burn a dvd image file, and give "somearchive.tar.split1" as the "image". K3b will complain that it is not an iso image, but it will burn anyway.
Got it now Carlos. As always, Thanks! I'll try that.
Just beware that the size should better be a multiple of 32 KiB, because the real size of the dvd will be padded up to fill the last block. It will work in any case, just that verification of the image could fail (and there are tricks around that, too). It's a very curious trick, having this kind of raw storage. - -- Cheers, Carlos E.
