I tried for the first time to burn an iso image onto a double layer dvd but it didn't work:

Instead, the NEC device on my sister's desktop machine works fine with the same media and the same version of growisofs. Does anybody have any experience about that? Do you think my laptop's Sony dvd burner is definitely not capable to do the job? Thanks Rodolfo -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
