Burning DVDs with Growisofs

#1 Post by dawgie »

Burning Your Own DVDs

Good easy instructions on burning DVDs here:
http://www.troubleshooters.com/linux/co ... ss_dvd.htm

Using mkisofs to create an iso file;
$ mkisofs -J -R -pad -o myiso.iso file1 file2 etc

and using growisofs and dao to burn a DVD:
$ growisofs -use-the-force-luke=dao -dvd-compat -Z /dev/hdx= myiso.iso -speed=2

(Note that this is without scsi emulation)
This has worked well for me. I am able to get 4.5GB of data burned on each DVD.
