As the title says.
Those interested in formatting their USB thumb-drives using the UDF format
may also be interested in reading this Superuser forum thread:

Please find attached a comparison table. I took the trouble of formatting the
same USB thumb-drive in UDF, ext? and f2fs. The results are attached.

-- NOTES --
The one-liner used was:
Code: Select all
df -h -T | head -1;df -h -T | grep sdd
the above-mentioned thread.
I had to compile the required xxd utility since we do not have it on Puppy.
(Also attached.)
The mkudffs utility is Ubuntu's.
The Puppy used being xenial32-706 with stemsee's kernel 4.1.2
No formatting was involved to get the overhead data for the vfat format, since
off-the-shelf USB thumb-drives come formatted in vfat, as you may know.
For the other formats, gparted_shell was used.
