I've done as you suggested :

dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/sr0 bs=2048 count=2295104

but since i don't have sr0 in my /dev dir, i assume it's supposed to be 
scd0.

[root@ksi4 /root]# dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/scd0 bs=2048 count=2295104
dd: /dev/scd0: Read-only file system

So then i try to do this :

[root@ksi4 /root]# mkudffs --media-type=cdrw /dev/cdrom
trying to change type of multiple extents


Wasn't that working before? I'm confused.. You've applied the kernel patch
for DVD+RW, right?

Ben

believe me, i'm pretty confused as well.. yes, it was working before, but i tried to do several things, and now, i can't make it work again.

so, i'm going to start from scratch.

i've downloaded the 2.4.17 kernel source, and applied the corresponding UDF patch. Then, i compile the new kernel with 'make dep clean bzImage modules modules_install'. Then cp bzImage to /boot and run lilo. Then reboot. When i boot up with the new kernel, the UDF module is loaded, but when i try to do the dd command you suggested, i get the error i mentioned before. what i'm i forgetting?
