Hi All,

I've just bought my first DVD burner and I'm trying to burn DVD-R's with growisofs but I'm having some problems.
For testing I just wanted to burn some big files using ISO9660 filesystem.
The burning process looks OK with no error but I cannot read the burnt DVDs. The whole process took about an
hour which is expected my system is quite old so only I used speed=1.

Any ideas?

Thanks,
James
