hi fedora folks,
i am about to upgrade to fc7 on my home system. so far it has only a cd
rw,
i want to add a dvd-writer that i can install fc7 from.
i'd like to ask what dvd-writers are known to work? any blu-ray models?
I don't ask about DVD-compatibility with Linux, I just buy. I had some
bad experience a while back with a couple of LG burners, currently I buy
Pioneer. There is a problem with my Pioneer with earlier (RHEL4 level)
versions of growisofs; the solution is to upgrade growisofs. I would
expect any to work; if I didn't have my own preference to avoid LG I'd
probably just accept the behind-the-counter geek's advice.
growisofs supports blu-ray, but they're too pricey for my taste.
