I find growisofs to be the easiest way to burn isos to dvd. Once you
have created your iso you can burn it with the following command:
growisofs -Z /dev/dvd=/tmp/image.iso

Hello.
I have just bought a DVD recorder and want to make daily backups
of some important files into a DVD-RW media. I am in doubt about
the recommended way of doing this. I am thinking about using the
following commands to be run from a script in /etc/cron.daily
mkisofs -v -J -R -o /tmp/image.iso -V 'Backup' -A 'Backup' <files to backup>
umount /dev/dvd || :
cdrecord -vvv -eject -dev=/dev/dvd blank=fast
cdrecord -vvv -dao --eject driveropts=burnfree dev=/dev/dvd /tmp/image.iso
Is that a good procedure? I am looking for comments on it.
Regards.
