--> I'm using DVD-RW media, which burn & verify OK under OS X.
What I did:
dvd+rw-format -force /dev/cdrom mkisofs -r -v -J -V data -o file.iso data_dir growisofs -Z /dev/cdrom=file.iso
The burn /seemed/ to go OK, but when I tried to verify it ...
1. cmp /dev/cdrom file.iso --> got an I/O error 2. find /mnt/cdrom -type f -print0 | xargs -0 md5sum >| ~/digest.disc --> got an I/O error
I was hoping that upgrading the firmware of the unit might help out, but ... not sure! Again, it seems I can burn things just fine under OS X with the *exact* same media. I've tried it with 2 DVD-RW discs.
Anyone know why I might get an I/O error ... bad burn? media? read/dma settings?

I just got a lite-on dvd burner over the holidays, and it took me a
while to get it going. At first I tried using dvdrecord (branch off
cdrecord) but it was giving me errors. The growisofs program that comes
with dvd+rw-tools works though to make the filesystem and burn. If it's
a dvd+rw you need to use dvd+rw-format to format the disc once before
the first burn. I haven't yet gotten dvdrecord to work yet, but
growisofs works for my usage.
