Created attachment 52581 [details, diff] Patch that fixes path to control device. Must be applied after http://w1.894.telia.com/~u89404340/patches/packet/udftools-1.0.0b3.patch.bz2 Changing path from /dev/pktcdvd/control to /dev/pktcdvd makes it work.
Fixed in udev-058 (possibly earlier releases too). You just need to use some udev rules like: # packet devices KERNEL="pktcdvd", NAME="pktcdvd/control", GROUP="cdrw", MODE="0660" KERNEL="pktcdvd[0-9]*", NAME="pktcdvd/pktcdvd%n", GROUP="cdrw", MODE="0660"
This problem has reappeared quite recently, with the message: Can't find pktcdvd character device turning up when attempting to set up the CD-RW drive for UDF. In particular, there is a patch named udftools-1.0.0b3.patch[.bz2] that contains the following code at line 135: + if (strcmp(name, "pktcdvd") == 0) { If this were changed so that the C code became if (strcmp(name, "pktcdvd/control") == 0 || strcmp(name, "pktcdvd") == 0) { or if (strncmp(name, "pktcdvd", 7) == 0) { then it should pick up the character device whether using the newer or older naming convention. So, who wants to patch the patch?
