What is the exact command packet?

You don't need to understand udf or pktcdvd, and probably not cdrom 
either; just need to get the cdrwtool commands right to get the media 
into the proper mode that it will accept the WRITE commands from the 
kernel.  udf only comes into play when you put a udf filesystem on the 
disc, which as I have said before, you will not be able to do, and 
pktcdvd only comes into play with cd-rw media formatted in packet mode, 
not cd-r media.
