How to delete some files from previous session with wodim?
OK, so suppose I have a multisession CD-RW. I burned leading session (first one, if that's the correct word), then after some time I wanna burn second session, but I wanna delete some (not all) files from the first session. With k3b I can so it easily. And I used to find info on how to delete all files from first session to burn new files (of course here by “deletion” I mean hiding). But is it possible to delete only some files from first session and burn next session with wodim?
I don't think that you can
You can hide the file with some applications but the space is not available to wite over.
I think that a CD-RW is a read only UDF file system.
You can copy the files that you want to somewhere, re-blank the CD, then start over.
Or I guess that you could make an .iso of the CD, mount it, alter it, blank the CD, write the .iso to CD.
