    <para>The <application>UDFtools</application> package contains utilities 
    for creating and mounting CD-RW disks with UDF file systems for both
    reading and writing. UDF files systems are used on both CD-RW media and
    on DVD.  For more details of the UDF file system standard see:
    <ulink url="http://www.osta.org"/> and

    <warning>
      <para>Note that this patch can permanently damage your CD 
      drive if it is from one of the few mentioned at 
      <ulink url="http://slashdot.org/article.pl?sid=03/10/25/1737244"/>. Do
      not apply the patch without first checking out the article.</para>
    </warning>

    <para>Install the kernel patch by running the following commands from
    the kernel source directory:</para>

<screen><userinput>bzcat ../packet-2.6.8-2.patch.bz2 | patch -Np1</userinput></screen>

  <para>In the kernel configuration, modify your settings to match those listed
  here:</para>

<screen><literal>Block devices
    Packet writing on CD/DVD media:       Y or M
CD-ROM/DVD Filesystems
    UDF file system support               Y or M</literal></screen>

    <para>Recompile and install the new kernel.</para>

<!--
<para>If you built packet writer as a module, add the following to
<filename>/etc/modules.conf</filename>:</para>

<screen><userinput>alias block-major-97 pktcdvd</userinput></screen>

<para>Finally, create the packet driver device nodes in <filename
class="directory">/dev</filename>, add one node for every
CD-RW drive you
want to support:</para>

<screen><userinput><command>mknod /dev/pktcdvd0 b 97 0
mknod /dev/pktcdvd1 b 97 1</command></userinput></screen>
