Instead of writing directly to floppy/cd,
consider writing to vtapes (virtual tapes)
which are hard disk directories and files
mimicing tapes.

You could size the vtapes to match the
floppy or cd and then copy the vtape
image to the final medium.

See the "user documentation" at zmanda.com
for a how to on setting these up.
