Thanks for the reply.
Why I tried growisofs? My impression from reading some info on the web
was that this is the current tool to do the job.
Anyway I tried cdrecord with exactly the same syntax that you offered,
but it didn't work -- I appended the output of the command to the end
of this message below. Also I appended the output of '-scanbus' and
'dev=help' options. Finally I appended variations on your proposed
command -- all failed with various messages, most of them similar.
My appologies if this message becomes too long -- I really cannot
read the output of 'cdrecord' and infer what is important and what
is not.
What else should I try? or is my device broken?
Thanks in advance,
Itay

Hi,
I am trying to burn FC3 dvd using my IBM T41. After some
hours reading through the man page, and googling I gave
up. Here is what I tried:
[root sam pkg]# growisofs -dry-run -Z /dev/scd0=FC3-i386-DVD.iso
:-( unable to open64("/dev/scd0",O_RDONLY): No such device or address
[root sam pkg]# growisofs -dry-run -Z /dev/hdc=FC3-i386-DVD.iso
:-[ LOAD TRAY failed with SK=5h/ASC=24h/ACQ=00h]: Input/output error
[root sam pkg]# growisofs -dry-run -Z /dev/cdrom=FC3-i386-DVD.iso
:-[ LOAD TRAY failed with SK=5h/ASC=24h/ACQ=00h]: Input/output error
In the first case the light indicator keeps flashing for at
least few minutes -- I stopped it by removing the medium.
The device can read DVDs burned by others.
How can I fix this?
by using cdrecord - growisofs I have only used to create DVD's
from an existing directory structure. For iso files, use
cdrecord
cdrecord -dev=/dev/cdrom -speed=4 -v -dao -pad FC3-i386-DVD.iso

I'm probably wrong, but by seeing this message you obviosly try
to burn a DVD using a CD-Burner.
What is the output from
cdrecord -scanbus
