My dmesg shows: cd0 at scsibus0 targ 0 lun 0: <HL-DT-ST, DVDRAM GH22LS40, LL01> ATAPI 5/cdrom removable It is some sort of new fangled dvd writer - super multi by LG.
I struggled with this for a while and finally the light shone bright as follows: FIRST, as root, type # disklabel cd0 SECOND, this reports, among other things the device name to use: # /dev/rcd0c My device is actually /dev/cd0a, but let that not bother you until it's time for mounting. THIRD, type # growisofs -Z /dev/rcd0c -R -J /home/sidhu/seema_mac They say you can keep adding data with the same command as above, just change the last "/home...." directory. Keep all the other options the same. FOURTH, close the burn # growisofs -M /dev/rcd0c=/dev/zero FINALLY, mount it # mount -o ro /dev/cd0a /mnt See, that cd0a from dmesg does come handy. Mehma
