	Hi, Gustavo!

	This is correct.

	The "cdrwtool" is just for CD-RWs...  you don't need it for DVD+RW drives.

	... this is because your machine can't actually *find* a CD-RW drive in the machine to write to.

	What works for me is:

dvd+rw-format -force /dev/hdc
pktsetup pktcdvd0 /dev/hdc
mkudffs --media-type=dvd --udfrev=0x0150 /dev/pktcdvd/pktcdvd0
mount -t udf -o rw,noatime /dev/pktcdvd/pktcdvd0 /media/dvdram/

	'/dev/hdc' is, of course, the location of my DVD+RW drive.  I have that in a shell script I run the first time I put a new disk into the drive and it sets everything up just nice.  Best of luck!
