This is probably a pretty dumb newbie type question
but can't seem to track down the answer I need.
I have a two systems each has either a CDRW or a DVDRW
RedHat 8.0 Installs. Loads of disk, ram etc...
CDRW
cdrecord -scanbus
Cdrecord 1.10 (i686-pc-linux-gnu) Copyright (C)
1995-2001 Jörg Schilling
Linux sg driver version: 3.1.19
Using libscg version 'schily-0.5'
scsibus0:
0,0,0 0) 'LG ' 'CD-RW CED-8120B ' '1.10'

DVDRW

Removable CD-ROM

They are on differnt systems DVD has a SCSI tape in it
so SCSI emulation shunts it to channel 1.
Now what I'd like to know is this...
In the CDRW world I can happily run
mkisofs -o whatever.iso <dir>
cdrecord speed=2 dev=0,0,0 whatever.iso
and it will make CD's without problem.
So I use it for backup jobs on a cron basis.
I cannot find out how to do the same with a
DVD to create a 4.7GB (or close to) image of a
directory stucture.
It seems to complain consistently and cannot make a
DVD with it.
Drive in Windows running NEro works fine so it's
probably a user, kernel or config thing...
The drives are RW's but I use R media at (CD)<15p and
(DVD)£1.05 a time it's not expensive and a great
backup option.
I'd have thought a simple DVD writing howto would be
around somewhere but can't find one.... can anyone
advise ?
Regards,
Dominic
