Pioneer A06 DVD writer / Solaris 8

[dasa123]

Dear all,

to use a DVD+RW like a hard drive at our SunBlade 100 under Solaris 8
we called Joerg Schilling's tool:

#cdrecord-prodvd dev=1,5,0 -format -v

It produced this output:

What's wrong here? In the next step we want to create a new filesystem
on the device i.e.

#mkfs -F udfs /dev/rdsk/c1t5d0s?

but this procedure also didn't work.

Any hints, tipps are welcome!
