+Write support requires a block driver which supports writing. Currently
|
|
|
+dvd+rw drives and media support true random sector writes, and so a udf
|
|
|
+filesystem on such devices can be directly mounted read/write. CD-RW
|
|
|
+media however, does not support this. Instead the media can be formatted
|
|
|
+for packet mode using the utility cdrwtool, then the pktcdvd driver can
|
|
|
+be bound to the underlying cd device to provide the required buffering
|
|
|
+and read-modify-write cycles to allow the filesystem random sector writes
|
|
|
+while providing the hardware with only full packet writes. While not
|
|
|
+required for dvd+rw media, use of the pktcdvd driver often enhances
|
|
|
+performance due to very poor read-modify-write support supplied internally
|
|
|
+by drive firmware.
