I took a look at the man page for growisofs since that was a new tool
(to me) and your syntax is correct per the page.
My only suggestion would be to try cdrecord instead and see if it can
do the job. cdrecord is also included in FC5 and can burn dvds. The
syntax looks like:

This is a pretty well known kernel bug. Sounds like you are still on a
2.4 kernel, because this was fixed in 2.5 (and later 2.4's). The
kernel used to base uptime on an internal counter called the jiffies
counter, which overflows at ~497 days uptime.
