Is this a problem with the media, or something to do
with 2.6.20? (The last time I formatted a CD-RW was
back in the 2.6.18 days...)
nix@hades 208 /home/nix% cdrwtool -d /dev/cdrw -q
using device /dev/cdrw
7294KB internal buffer
setting write speed to 4x
Settings for /dev/cdrw:
Fixed packets, size 32
Mode-2 disc
I'm going to do a quick setup of /dev/cdrw. The disc is going to be blanked and formatted with one big track. All data on the device will be lost!! Press CTRL-C to cancel now.
ENTER to continue.

Writing UDF structures to disc
Quick setup complete!
nix@hades 209 /home/nix% mount /mnt/pcdrw
ls -l /mnt/pcdrw
mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/pktcdvd/cdrw,
missing codepage or other error
In some cases useful info is found in syslog - try
dmesg | tail or so
UDF-fs: No partition found (1)
pktcdvd: Fixed packets, 32 blocks, Mode-2 disc
pktcdvd: Max. media speed: 10
pktcdvd: write speed 4x
pktcdvd: 590528kB available on disc
Other packet-written CD-RWs mount fine, but I haven't tried
re-cdrwtooling any of them yet: it takes ages and I don't want to write
off any more disks...
