Mounting UDF formatted DVD+RW in read-write mode
Hi folks,
I'm having trouble getting Leopard to mount a freshly formatted UDF DVD+RW in read-write mode. It always seems to come up mounted read-only regardless of the options I give mount or mount_udf. I've tried default and 2.5 versions of UDF, specifying fix-packet when creating the volume, specifying -w on mount_udf, specifying -o w on mount, etc.
The disc seems to be created okay, and shows free space..Just can't figure out how to use it. Any thoughts/working recipes? Example transcript follows..
Thanks in advance,

Looks good so far -- the volume was created fine, is readable, mountable, and shows free space..
scutter:~ doucej$ mount

devfs on /dev (devfs, local)
fdesc on /dev (fdesc, union)
map -hosts on /net (autofs, automounted)
map auto_home on /home (autofs, automounted)
/dev/disk0s3 on /Volumes/Untitled (ntfs, local, read-only, noowners)
/dev/disk1 on /Volumes/Backup (udf, local, read-only)

....but it still won't come up read-write, so I can't actually use it.
