oh, the dvd hangs directly on the mainboard; it is ide. I'd have to open
the box to see make and model. [...] I believe it is master and the only
device on the strap.

yes, I was being cute.

And "hangs" is... appropriate, given what I'd previously snipped :-)

# hdparm -i /dev/dvdrecorder

thanks for reminding me about using hdparm for this!

so it's a lite-on SOHW-1673S.

it should do udf. I am googling for any problems specific to it without
any clear indications yet.

Your initial posting in this thread mentioned pktcdvd - it occurs to me that
it might be worth you trying a newer kernel first (but you'll want to upgrade
udev with it); kernel changelogs say that a lot of pktcdvd fixes went in
between 2.6.13 and 2.6.16.
