If you are trying to create the DVD file system, you want to use something like mkiso. I've never used cdrwtool, but based on the name I would think it is used to send the commands to a disc burner to actually burn the disk - but it would need the data to burn, such as an iso file created by something like mkiso. _______________________________________________ users mailing list -- users@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe send an email to users-le...@lists.fedoraproject.org Fedora Code of Conduct: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/users@lists.fedoraproject.org Do not reply to spam, report it: https://pagure.io/fedora-infrastructure/new_issue
