Hi,
How do I get to write to a DVD. I put in a blank DVD and I don't get
anything.
Mount volume says no media, and I cant figure out how to proceed since
nothing
works.
is this a feature or a bug?
It's likely to be a sick drive. You can run cdrecord with the -atip or
-prcap options and see what you are told.
That copy of cdrecord is *very* old, have you upgraded since you did the
install? Is that really what is the latest in FC6, I thought they were
using Wodim (a hacked version) 1.0.6. That's what FC7 uses.
It is most likely to be a drive issue, though, does dmesg say anything
enlightening about the drive?
With a good DVD Drive and the old kernel in F7 a blank DVD will show up
on my Desktop. One with stuff on it will show up with the name of the
DVD and a panel with all the files listed.
If your using a new kernel none of the above happens.
