It may be a hardware issue, but it isn't restricted to Lite-On. I have had this problem with Fedora Core 3 and CentOS ISO's. I had never had this problem before. I have three burners, two DVD+/-R and one CD+R. All three have the same problem. HP ' 'DVD Writer 200j ' '1.06' Removable CD-ROM SONY ' 'DVD RW DRU-710A ' 'BY02' Removable CD-ROM SAMSUNG ' 'CDRW/DVD SN-324F' 'U203' Removable CD-ROM I just tried the -pad option on the Sony and got a good Fedora Core 3 disk 1.
