This explains why xorriso or dvd+rw-format can open the drive
device file. (The failure to re-format is a different problem.)

I am not a kernel hacker, but rather a self-proclaimed expert for
optical drives and ISO 9660.

My best guess is that the kernel believes the medium is read-only
(like BD-ROM) and thus refuses any attempt to use it for writing
via the normal POSIX system interface.

But i do not know how to inquire the kernel's view on the medium.
The drive sees a BD-RE and has no scruples to write data to it.
But the kernel seems to see a problem with writing.


Have a nice day :)
