UDF packet writing software or reader/viewer for Linux
 

Hello!
Universal Disk Format (UDF) is a new file format which is excellent, particularly if you are using a CD writer. It is supported by the new Linux kernals.
I have been trying to find a way to use UDF files on CDRW on Linux systems - paerticularly on Debian. It fails. The CD cannot be recognised and therefore once inserted it cannot be removed until I shutdown!!

Anyone knows how to mount a UDF writtem CDROM in Linux?

Did you actuallty enable UDF support in the
kernel?
To mount a CD-RW specifically as UDF
try using
mount -t udf /dev/<yourCDRWdevice> /<your>/<mountpoint>

If the CD doesn't get mounted it should be no
problem to eject, though :)

Cheers,

udf
 

Thanks!
Following your advice,I edited the fstab file and put in a line for udf in addition to the iso9660 and now I can mount udf cdrw easily! I will try auto next and see.

Now I can READ udf cds in Linux but...........
I hope we get some GUI packet writing software in Linux soon.....
