It's a part of the "dvd+rw-tools" package, probably "urpmi dvd+rw-tools" will do the trick, There's a sort of a tutorial at http://fy.chalmers.se/~appro/linux/DVD+RW/ Hmm it's confusing.. Just to use growisofs you will NOT need to patch your kernel. Just experiment with commands like.. growisofs -Z /dev/scd0 -R -J /some/files growisofs -M /dev/scd0 -R -J /more/files Yes you will have to work it out a little.. but the results are excellent.
