If you wish to do a format on Linux, you might try: cdrwtool -d /dev/sr1 -m 4096
using device /dev/sr1 formatting 4096 blocks 8065KB internal buffer setting write speed to 12x But after I tried: # pktsetup /dev/pktcdvd /dev/sr1 # mkudffs --udfrev=0x0150 --media=cdrw /dev/sr1 trying to change type of multiple extents Am I missing something ? Do I need cdrwtool -d /dev/sr1 -b fast ? This is a new disk. I'm using the new UDF driver from CVS, with the namei.c changes. Tomorrow I'll format 2 disks with InCD 3.37, put files in one, let the other empty, and test both with packet-cd.
this will format the cd with cdrwtool in 4096 blocks. You would probably use more blocks, but 4096 is a good test to see if you get a seek error.

/dev/pktcdvd0 and /dev/pktcdvd are for the pktcdvd module to write to a a cdrw after mounting.
I see, but I thought devfs would create /dev/pktcdvd0 and not /dev/pktcdvd. Are they different ?
If you use mount -t udf /dev/sr1 /mnt/cdrom, you will receive a message telling you it is mounting read only.
Yes, but after using packet-cd with the InCD 3.31 disk I now get a lot of messages in the logs (see my last mail) by only mounting it and reading the "corrupted" directories.
If I could format it on Linux...
Yesterday Ben fixed a bug in UDF CVS (present in 2.4.19) which prevented reading the contents after mounting.

I only noticed the new messages now. I think they only appeared after.
From my shell prompt, I see the commands completed at:
pktsetup /dev/pktcdvd /dev/sr1 14:11:55 mount -t udf /dev/pktcdvd /mnt/cdrom 14:14:08 umount /mnt/cdrom 14:28:05 pktsetup -d /dev/pktcdvd 14:32:27 mount -t udf /dev/sr0 /mnt/cdrom 14:33:10 umount /mnt/cdrom 14:42:58
BTW, what's /dev/pktcdvc0 ? With devfs I only get /dev/pktcdvd.
I'm using media ACER 8x.
