RE: Using DVD-RAM drive

Does anyone know why I can't delete anything off my DVD-RAM drive?  I get an 
error message (CPFA1C5) saying the object is "read-only".  However, the object 
does not have the read only attribute set.

Additionally, prior to the CPFA1C5 I see a OPT1261 - Active file found on 
volume.

I am able to reinitialize the volume.  But I was expecting the DVD-RAM to work 
like a DVD-RW in my home PC when used with a packet writing driver such as 
InCD.  Kind of like a removable hard disk.

Hm, it does work the way I'd expect with stream files that are simply copied in 
from the IFS.  I can delete them no problem.

So, it must have something to do with the fact that objects it won't let me 
delete are SAV'd objects.


Can anybody confirm what is going on?


Thanks,
