How do I span disks in Ubuntu

DiscSpan 0.2.2

author: James S. Martin ceedvd ( a t ) g m a i l .com

———

This tool is geared more towards smaller files such as music and photos
as it cannot span a single file across multiple discs.

If you have lots of files in the gigabyte range, this utility won’t be as efficient.

The tool is written in Python and uses growisofs as the burning interface.

Requirements
————

It is known to work in Fedora 12, 13, RHEL 5.5, but should work on any recent
Linux system with growisofs, and python 2.5-2.6. Requires the dbus-python module.

running and installing DiscSpan
—————-

copy the discscan.py somewhere in your path. Put discpan.ini in /etc,
/usr/local/etc, the same dir as discspan.py, or specify with –config=

Please edit discspan.ini to reflect the speed of your media/device,
as well as the capacity of your media. I have seen cases where
media sizes are slightly varied

run discspan.py.

Usage: discspan.py [options]

Options:
-h, –help show this help message and exit
–config=CONFIG_FILE Location of config file.
–start-disc=START_DISC
Specify disc to start with (in case of failed previous
burn)
–skip-big Skip files that are too big.
–test Performs a test run of the burn.
–dir=BACKUP_DIR Directory to backup.
–volume-name=VOLUME_NAME
Name for the volume.
–size-factor=SIZE_FACTOR
Specify size factor for disc capacity, i.e. 1 = 100%
–iso-dir=ISO_DIR Redirect iso generation to a directory. Filename will
be generated from volume name.
-v, –verbose Extended verbosity

If you don’t supply a backup dir, you will be prompted.

limitations
———–

The discspan.ini measurements are defined in gibibyte and mebibyte.

1G is defined as 2^30 bytes.

Lots of media manufactures define their stuff in gigabytes, which is
93% less than a gibibyte.

That’s why the nubmers you see in discspan.ini may look different
than what’s labeled on your media. Feel free to tweak to your
hearts content.

discspan will not follow symlinks (yet) !

DBUS doesn’t detect the capacity of the disc properly so I can’t modify
these on the fly. If someone can give me the capacity in bytes of a Dual Layer
DVD or Blue Ray/HD-DVD, I can add that.

I’ve guestimated values but if they are wrong, please tweek them and send
me an appropriate update.

Also, this has only been tested on dvd-r and dvd-rw media.

Thank Yous
———–
Thanks go out to Doc, Richard, Dez, Erin, Jason, Adam for their debugging, code contributions, and ideas!

Thank you to Davyd Madeley and Dieter Verfaillie for their DBUS
code examples! Without that, I would not have figured out
how to detect the DVD drive :).

Also thanks to the #python channel on freenode. Wonderful folks.

How do I load the nav database in EPIC CDSR

Here is the quick guide:

Epic download instructions-1

Guidance From Mark Zuille

Pull AFCS breaker
Red disk First
Connect to port one in Engineers Panel
Reset Breaker 1
Monitor Local Area Connection on windows tray.
1 minute to stabilise

Install
Next, do the same procedure in blue disk.

very interesting.

I have worked on Mooneys and such, degaussing them with large coils, but the accepted resons was the original welding at the factory caused the magnetism.
