Hello. Can anybody help me ? My system: RedHat 7.2 (2.4.17, gcc-2.95-3), IDE CDRW drive Mitsumi 4805, udf tools from udf-0.9.5 package. I successfully compile patched kernel 2.4.17 with UDF write support (with loadable modules) and now able to read and write to UDF CDRW disc (formatted by DirectCD 5.0 for Windows). But two problems remains: 1. I can't succesfully read files (writed by DirectCD) in folders on CDRW disk (perhaps problem with absence of owner/group information) - only in root of /mnt/cdrw directory. Please look to end of the letter for this problem. 2. I cannot finish formatting of CDRW disk with cdrwtool usage: --- [root@my home]# cdrwtool -d /dev/cdrom -q using device /dev/cdrom 1312KB internal buffer setting write speed to 12X Settings for /dev/cdrom: Fixed packets, size 32 Mode-2 disc ... Initiating quick disc blank Disc capacity is 295264 blocks (590528KB/576 MB) Formatting track Writing UDF structures to disc 7200 (EET) /-120 --- At this place there are no response from cdrwtool (only CDRW LED turns again from red light to normal yellow ; i can't eject disk, kill cdrwtool, ..) and CDRW drive is locked (disk ejecting possible only after reboot). On one website i found that last message from cdrwtool after disk formating should be "Quick setup complete!" and previous message should looks like "-14400 (EDT)/240". Whats up, cdrwtool format only half of disk ? Where i can find manual for udf tools ? Thank you.
