Help,
I burned a DVD+RW (well 3 now :-( )
They were burned on a Debian system with a 2.6.5 kernel, but they keep making duff DVD's that I can't read from the Linux box.
My DVD reports as a NEC and is on /dev/hdc which is linked to /dev/dvd
I've downloaded the latest version and run this for my 3rd DVD failure, I don't really want to continue killing DVD+RW's.
Growisofs seems to run OK

When I put the DVD's into my Windows XP machine, the DVD's are readable
(don't know about writing as I only have the 1 DVD-Writer).
What happens if you just try to mount the media, or do an isoinfo or other operation? Need more data.
Well at least on the X, try booting with video=vesafb:off. Unless the card is really broken it should support vesafb/vga16 access mode.I have no automount process running, no X server running (incompatible graphics card, so X won't even start).
Any clues ?
