Hi, I formatted a dvd-ram with udf:
mkudffs --media-type=dvdram /dev/scd0 Than after mounting the dvd-ram I can copy files to it and a diff shows that the copied files are okay. To ensure that the files have really been written I switched the writer off and on and mounted and ejected another dvd between cp and diff, and there were no differences. But if I try to recursively copy directories to the udf-formatted dvd-ram: cp -r /some/dir /media/cdrecord than after a few seconds the system freezes totally - only a power off/on to reboot is possible. The same occurs if I use Nautilus for the copying. However if I formatted the dvd-ram with ext2 filesystem, all went fine, no problems. I run Ubuntu 5.10 with kernel 2.6.12-10-amd64-generic on a Dell OPTIPLEX GX620 (Intel P4 620, 1G RAM), the dvd-writer is a NEC ND-4550A (Firmware 1.07), connected via USB2 with a Cypress Semiconductor Corp. USB-2.0 IDE Adapter. Any suggestions to get udf working?
