I have a similar problem writing to dvd-rw on a usb drive via a shell script. I use something like the following to backup my system at night:
#!/bin/bash TODAY=$(/bin/date +"%Y.%m.%d") # create backup.$TODAY.tgz /usr/bin/growisofs -use-the-force-luke -dvd-compat -Z /dev/dvdrw1\ -D -r -T -l -graft-points -iso-level 4 -V "$TODAY.Backup"\ backup.$TODAY.tgz If I watch this run, after I see "/dev/dvdrw1: flushing cache" and before "/dev/dvdrw1: writing lead-out" the error box will be displayed. This did not happen in 9.04. -- Unable to mount blank optical disk https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/486780 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a bug assignee. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
