when I manually eject the dvd and insert it again, nothing happens : I cannot access the files on it. (though the surface of the dvd is changed)

I have no comment on this. Except that it's most likely question to your media manufacturer.
"growisofs -Z /dev/cdrom -R -J /my/file" "Executing 'mkisofs -R -J /my/file | builtin_dd of=/dev/cdrom obs=32k seek=0' :-( unable to unmount /dev/cdrom: No such file or directory"
There was a bug introduced in 5.4 and corrected in 5.5, which manifests in this exact manner. Upgrade or invoke growisofs by absolute path, e.g. /usr/local/bin/growisofs -Z /dev/cdrom ...'
When I try "dd if=/my/file.iso of=/dev/cdrom obs=32k" I get ... the fs is read-only.
To get dd working you have to patch the kernel. But please note that it makes no sense to patch the kernel solely for dd's sake, as growisofs fills in for it perfectly. In other words, if volumes generated by mkisofs is your sole goal, stick to user-land and abstain from patching kernel. A.
