Loading the kernel module is easy, I just added a "RUN+="  line to
/etc/udev/rules/50-udev.rules:

---------------------------------------------------
KERNEL=="hd[a-z]", BUS=="ide", SYSFS{removable}=="1",
PROGRAM=="check-cdrom.sh %k CD-R", SYMLINK+="cdwriter cdwriter-%k cdrw
cdrw-%k", RUN+="/sbin/modprobe pktcdvd"
.....
 --------------------------------------------------

I am a bit confused on how to run pktsetup. I think that the commands
should be in a new file that can be included in udevtools, so I create
a file named 52-pktsetup.rules:

----------------------------------------------
KERNEL=="hd[a-z]", BUS=="ide", SYSFS{removable}=="1",
PROGRAM=="check-cdrom.sh %k CD-R", RUN+="/usr/bin/pktsetup %k %p"
----------------------------------------------

Apparently pktsetup is not being run. Replacing the command with a
"/bin/sh -c 'echo hi > /root/test" doesn't create a test file....

Is there a log file I can check?
