Hi all,
as I mentioned to some of you on Monday I am inplementing a backup
scheme to DVD+rw (until we purchase a tape drive).

I can format and write the first batch of files, but growisofs fails
to write a second 'session'.

Commands are:
	dvd+rw-format /dev/scd0
	growisofs -R -J -Z /dev/scd0 /some_files
	growisofs -R -J -M /dev/scd0 /more_files

The last command appears to work from the messages given, but the files
are not on the DVD if I mount and 'ls' it.

Any one got a solution or any suggestions?

Simon.
