To recap the results of recent emails regarding the use of dvd+rw-tools on FreeBSD: I'm running FreeBSD 4.8-Stable with a Sony DRU-500A as my only CD/DVD device. My computer has an Athlon Thunderbird 900 with 1.5G RAM. 0. Be the root user, by whatever means you use. 1. Get dvd+rw-tools-5.8.4.4.4.tar.gz from: http://fy.chalmers.se/~appro/linux/DVD+RW/tools/ 2. Extract the file, 'cd' into the directory and execute 'make install'. 3. Make sure you have mkisofs 2.0. If not, install it from the ports. 4. If you're going to burn CD's, install cdrecord. (I successfully burned a CD.) 5. Make sure you kernel is compiled with: #ATA and ATAPI devices device atapicam #SCSI peripherals device scbus device da device cd device pass 6. Change the cdrom's entry in /etc/fstab. With my configuration, I changed /dev/acd0c to /dev/cd0c. Try to mount a cdrom. 7. If scsi passthru is working each of the following commands should list your CD/DVD device: camcontrol devlist cdrecord --scanbus 8. Format new DVD+RW's by executing: dvd+rw-format -leadout [device] 9. Burn each DVD+RW's first image with: growisofs -Z [device] [mkisofs options] [files] To burn all files in the current directory I used: growisofs -Z /dev/cd0c -r -l * 10. To burn additional files to the DVD+RW, replace '-Z' with '-M' in step 9. Best of luck; and a big "THANKS!" to everyone who helped me out!
