All, I've installed a Lite-on DVDRW LDW-451S into a Redhat Linux 9 server, wanting to use mondoarchive to back it up. I can back up the server beautifully to a dvd+rw once. After that, it won't blank the dvd. If I manually go in and run the blank, I get this: [root@orion root]# dvd+rw-format -blank /dev/scd0 * DVD±RW format utility by <appro@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>, version 4.9. * 4.7GB DVD+RW media detected. - illegal command-line option for this media. - you have the option to re-run dvd+rw-format with: -lead-out to elicit lead-out relocation for better DVD-ROM compatibility, data is not affected; -force to enforce new format (not recommended) and wipe the data. I've installed: dvdrecord-0.1.2-10 dvd+rw-tools-5.19.4.9.7-0.pm.2 kernel-2.4.20-31.9smp I don't know what else to try...
