udfhd
A tool to create a UDF hard drive or usb drive that will be properly mounted on Windows, OSX, and Linux.
UDF has the potential to replace FAT32 or NTFS on USB drives, it has a lot of modern features and is supported by all OSes for Read/Write at v2.01 of UDF
This tool is based on the Perl script by Pieter @ http://sipa.ulyssis.org/2010/02/filesystems-for-portable-disks/
Usage
Install globally:
npm install -g udfhd
or run locally after cloning.
To format a drive, use the following command as root. WARNING: There is no protection on what drive you choose. Be careful which path you provide. I am not responsible if you wipe your entire drive. This is a destructive operation.
udfhd /dev/sda AwesomeHD
udfhd takes 2 parameters. A required device and an optional label for the drive. I default to "UDF" if you don't provide a label.
TODO
After making sure it works on Linux, I plan to make it work on Windows. Theoretically it should work just fine with \.\PhysicalDriveX pathes on Windows.
