<workaround> k3b burning iso to dvd error
« on: April 26, 2010, 02:09:37 AM »
I made a remaster of my PCLinuxOS 2010, the iso has 1.2 GB.
Then I tried it to burn with k3b. After 96% of burning process
growisofs produced an input/output error message.
On two different computers with PCLinuxOS 2010 I've got
the same result. All computers have sata dvd drives inside.
For testing purposes I've burned successful iso to cd and also
data dvd.
Then I downloaded an iso from distrowatch (1.1 GB), proofed
the checksum and tried to burn to dvd, input/output error again.
The problem seems to be in using of growisofs.
Please help!

From the command line executed this:

wodim dev=/dev/scd0 fs=14M speed=8 -dao -eject -overburn -v livecd.iso

The dvd was burned successfully and I could boot without any errors.

Edited:

Also works from command line

growisofs -dvd-compat -speed=8 -Z /dev/dvd=livecd.iso
