I was looking at the command to burn iso image to a dvd. But I couldnt get the name of the device. In the /dev/ I could see cdrom,cdrw,dvd,dvdrw. I am using debian.
When I gave the command, I got the following output
dd if=debian-6.0.7-i386-DVD-1.iso of=/dev/dvdrw dd: opening `/dev/dvdrw': Read-only file system

Method 1
You can’t use dd this way (it might work for DVD-RAM though). What you are looking for is growisofs – (the main) part of dvd+rw-tools.
growisofs -Z /dev/dvdrw=image.iso
Method 2
Using dd command you can not write DVD.
You can write DVD using growisofs command.
First you have to create ISO Using dd command like
dd if=/dev/dvd of=my_test.iso bs=2048
Then write DVD Using this command
growisofs -dvd-compat -Z /dev/dvd=my_test.iso
Method 3
I believe growisofs uses dd, so the original command could work.
My example uses a 22G image to bluray.
Here is the output of growisofs using the dry-run option:
growisofs -dry-run -speed=1 -Z /dev/sr0=/snd/BDSV_3E.iso
return:
Executing 'builtin_dd if=/snd/BDSV_3E.iso of=/dev/sr0 obs=32k seek=0'
You can experiment. I suggest using cheaper DVDs or CDs
