Yeah, what I have done in the shutdown script rc.reboot-cd is if growisofs
returns with $? -ne 0 then the script assumes cannot burn to that DVD and
will ask for a new one
...that's if I got the logic right, as not yet tested.
...also assuming that growisofs will return a non-zero value if cannot burn to a DVD. I do know if a DVD is closed, it returns value 255.
Anyway, 20th October iso now available.

As of version 5.2 growisofs performs the necessary checks for you and refuses to start recording if "overburn" condition appears to be unavoidable... |
We are supplying a list of files to save. I'm uncertain that growisofs determines the total requirement for those files ...if it does, that is good.
That will simplify the code if it can be determined. For now, rc.reboot-cd
has its own code to determine if limit will be overrun.
