Re: Mount DVD disk

[Todd Gruhn <tgruhn2%gmail.com@localhost>]

mount -t udf -w -r /dev/cd0 /cdrom
   # FAILS

mount -t cd9660 -w -r /dev/cd0 /cdrom
    # Works -- but I cannot delete stuff

The disk says DVD+RW.

What am I missing ?

"mount -uw /cdrom"  totally fails

"mount -rw /cdrom" works -- but cant delete (again).
