Hi Philippe, You need to use dvd+rw-tools to format the DVD+RW first. Something like dvd+rw-format <your dvdwriter device> should take a minute or two to format the drive, then mkudffs should work on the packet device.
hi, thank you very much it work now ! in the doc this step is only required on dvd-rw and not dvd+rw. Maybee doc should be updated ? or is my dvd writer have problem ? thank you again
With the CDRW, I don't know why the cdrwtool is failing to blank it, but the q option will try to do a quick blank, so maybe try to blank the disc in cdrecord, then just format it with cdrwtool ( I think the m option).
will try that, but dvd is what I want to use.
