Mailinglist Archive: packet-writing (23 mails)

[Ingo Brunberg <ingo_brunberg@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I think your problem is that you are using the old fashioned 2.6.8
kernel/packet-patch together with the udftools patch for newer
kernels.

Try an unmodified version of udftools-1.0.0b3.
Then "pktsetup /dev/pktcdvd0 /dev/hdd" should get you going.
