Why not use a gui utility like K3B?

am getting errors like this..

growisofs -dvd-compat -Z /dev/dvd=platform_disk_1.iso
unable to open64("/dev/dvd",O_RDONLY): Permission denied

Try something like this with cdrecord:

cdrecord -v dev=/dev/hdd speed=8 filename.iso

of course, changing the device to your own device and the speed as desired

Oops, just noticed you are looking to burn dvd and I posted for cd. I have no experience with cdrecord and dvd so can't really help with that. Sorry.

No.. this also does not seems to be working..

Did you make sure you choose the right devices? It is unlikely that /dev/hdd is your CDROM device...

Try this to find out your CDROM device :

dmesg | grep -i cd | grep -i rom

niru52,

seems to me that you do not have sufficient permissions to burn.Are you doing it as root?

have run this cmd ..dmesg | grep -i cd | grep -i rom

Also, I tired replacing hdd with hdc..anyway /dev/cdrom and /dev/dvd are both link to /dev/hdc.but still i got errors as shown below..

cdrecord -v dev=/dev/hdc speed=8 platform_disk_1.iso
cdrecord: No write mode specified.
