I further played around and finally got it working as follows: /etc/init.d/volmgt stop cdrw -vl Get the correct device form the list mkfs -F udfs /dev/rdsk/c2t0d0s0 mount -F udfs /dev/dsk/c2t0d0s2 /mnt touch /mnt/Test ls /mnt ... umount /mnt This seems to work, though I have no idea what an udfs filesystem is. I just hope that it will be able to hold our home dirs.
