DVD+RW made in OS4, read on OS3.9?

Just curious if it would be possible to somehow read/write to a DVD+RW created using the SmartFilesystem-based format that OS4 supported? I've got a disk which had been created on my now-defunct A1 that I would like to read somehow on my OS3.9 WinUAE setup, but haven't been able to figure out how to make it happen yet. I tried creating a mountfile that accessed the drive with SmartFileSystem (current OS 3.9 version from Joerg's website), but it fails to recognize the disk.

I suppose another way would be to create a disk image file and mount that, but I don't know if there are any utils in OS3.9 that can read a disk image which is larger than 4 GB (which this would be). I do have access to a linux box with a DVD burner, so could make the image there if need be, then set it up as an HDF in UAE if I have to, but I'd rather be able to access the disk directly in the emulation if at all possible.

So, anyone have any ideas on how to do this?

@DWolfman

I remember reading that the DVD+-RW format was custom to OS4... I suspect it depends on the CDFS too, not just SFS.

@mwoof

Not good.

I'm hoping that Joerg will chime in soon? Don't know if he looks at the Classic forums, though.

Maybe I should have put this in the OS4 forums?

@RWO

What? When did that happen?

Man, I need to pay more attention here.

OK, starting a thread on Amigans.net then.
