Are you sure you have the frag size set to 1024? This should not
work if the drive only supports blocks with a multiple of 2k in size.

How did you create the UFS image for the DVD-RAM? With an image
via the md device? This seems actually the only way to gener-
ate an ufs filesystem on a dvd-ram for me now.

Best regards,
