===== DVD =====

==== Detect Drive ====

<file>
dvd+rw-mediainfo /dev/dvd

which growisofs
</file>

If it's not installed:

<file>
sudo apt-get install dvd+rw-tools

cdrecord -scanbus
</file>

==== Burn an ISO Image ====

Limit the speed with '-speed=1' for uncertain media.

<file>
growisofs -dvd-compat -speed=1 -Z /dev/dvd=Downloads/CentOS-5.5-i386-bin-DVD.iso
</file>

===== CD =====

==== Detect Drive ====

<file>
cdrecord -scanbus
</file>
or
<file>
wodim --devices
</file>

==== Burn ISO Image ====

<file>
cdrecord -v dev=3,0,0 Desktop/ubuntu-11.04-desktop-amd64.iso
</file>
or
<file>
wodim -eject -tao speed=2 dev=/dev/scd0 -v -data Desktop/ubuntu-11.04-desktop-amd64.iso
</file>

'''speed=4''' is faster.

Try '''speed=0''' if problems.
