Sorry, I know nothing about standards, optical media and filesystems,
and don't understand how it works, once I had some issues with mounting
optical media, also missing a filesystem which I fixed with enabling
CONFIG_UDF_FS in kernel. I tried to read about UDF... before replying,
but it is too much for me, if I understand it correctly it is not just
what is written to the media but also how (different modes, for adding
more data later ...), so may be some option while burning media that
allows you to use free space left on the disk.
If this is not useful just ignore it. ;-)
