What I find weird is the absolute conclusive confidence of the web sites I searched that with a drive that has DVD-R/RAM capabilities that the below CLI will work.
My circumstances can't possibly be THAT special...
What in the world could I be missing??

BTW burning CD's is no problem at all...

Good luck. I asked a similar question over a week ago and haven't had a

I'm having a problem writing DVD iso images to
DVD-R media. I'm looking for some input on what
I am doing wrong and some tips on what to do
next. Here is what I have going on so far...

dmesg says
hdc: ATAPI 24X DVD-ROM DVD-R-RAM CD-R/RW drive,
2048kB Cache, UDMA(33)
Uniform CD-ROM driver Revision: 3.20

KInfoCenter says:
Can Write DVD-R         YES
Can Write DVD-RAM   YES

I read this:
http://osdir.com/ml/debian.knoppix/2004-06/msg00067.html
to get this:
growisofs -dvd-compat -Z
/dev/hdc=KNOPPIX_V5.1.1DVD-2007-01-04-EN.iso

After making a couple coasters I searched and
found tkDVD
(http://regis.damongeot.free.fr/tkdvd/) and it
shows you the CLI it builds. In this case
specifically for burning a DVD images it creates
this:
growisofs -dvd-compat -use-the-force-luke=tty -Z
/dev/dvd=KNOPPIX_V5.1.1DVD-2007-01-04-EN.iso

BTW I got "KNOPPIX_V5.1.1DVD-2007-01-04-EN.iso"
via bittorrent using Azureus (twice)

Both the CLI and tkDVD produce output similar to
the following during the burn process...

growisofs -dvd-compat -Z
/dev/hdc=KNOPPIX_V5.1.1DVD-2007-01-04-EN.iso
Executing 'builtin_dd
if=KNOPPIX_V5.1.1DVD-2007-01-04-EN.iso

The system that does the burn "sees" the blank
DVD-R media before the burn and then doesn't
recognize the media after the burn. The system
dedicated to booting from Knoppix using Knoppix
v5.11 on CD-ROM doesn't boot from the DVD-R at
all (tested on 2 different systems).

I'm stumped...

TIA!
