Re: [gentoo-user] How to use formatted CDs in rw mode?
Could someone tell me what I would have to do to get the read-write access to my UDF formatted CDs? You need an additional patch for the kernel to get R/W UDF support... It's referred to as packet writing... try this out for more info: http://gentoo-wiki.com/HOWTO_Packet_Writing_on_CD-RW -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list

You can't packet-write with that, even if you could reliably packet-write under Linux, which afaik, you can't. Even the programs that pretend to do drag-and-drop burning ala XP, just make an ISO in the temp directory and burn that. Sorry, but I really hate packet-writing. Always have, since it showed up some 6 or so years ago under Windows apps (yes, it was around long before XP melded it into the OS). Holly -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list

I can already hear the answer of No.. so I will preempt and ask: if not, does anyone know of a way to use directCD's under Linux without resorting to vmware+windows+directcd ? -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list

does anyone know if this is capatible with the directCD's made with Adaptec's windows software? Yes. I've used discs formatted using Roxio DirectCD, as well as Nero InCD and one other program whose name escapes me at the moment... -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
