Does this mean if I format a DVD-RW with UDF (not sure how I would do

done that with DVD-RAM drives.
Not sure if the DVR-A03 would support that th

Better compatibility with older DVD players and DVD rom drives.
Oh and cheaper too I think. Not sure if they have done either yet.

I doubt it. I sure wouldn't want to implement a multi threaded cd burner
program when running two copies will
ad on boot, instead of trying
the messy modprobe mess you have, it might work better. And there is
nothing wrong with using ide-scsi for all your ide cdrom drives, even
the non cd-rw ones. So if you simply use rc.modules or /etc/modules or
whatever your distribution has, to force load ide-scsi on
not work.
I guess you either make sure to get some very reflective silver discs, or
get a DVD player that explicitly handles generic media (a 2 laser model).

Something like cdrecord -atip, loads the drawer and reads a bit form
