K3b is running mkisofs and growisofs at the same time, hence the
mixed up debug output making it hard to see where the error is coming
from. Take the media, drive and growisofs out of the equation by
getting K3b to create an ISO image instead. If that works, write the
image to disc with
growisofs -dvd-compat -Z /dev/dvd=/path/to/file.iso
At least you'll have a better idea where the problem lies.
Could I just get rid of one of the programs or are they all part of the
same package? I suspect a mismatch of package versions which is why I
went unstable with k3b and cdrtools.
It is odd that it is trying to run two programs at the same time tho.
Not really, mkisofs is creating the ISO data and growisofs is writing it
to the disc. Basically, the output of mkisofs is piped through growisofs
to the disc. The alternative is to write an ISO image file and then burn
it to disc, which is slower but what I suggested to see where the problem
lies.
OK. I went back to k3b and tried to burn a Gentoo install disc which is
a iso image. This is what it gives when I do that.
