HOWTO: Burn ISO image to DVD w/ linux commandline

When burning an ISO image to disc, I simply use this:

$ growisofs -dvd-compat -speed=1 -Z /dev/dvd=disc.iso
Using -speed=1 takes a little longer than the default "as fast as possible" mode, but guarantees the disc can be properly read in the pickiest of drives (eg., a Wii DVD drive). DVD-R (not DVD+R) is also recommended.

I never use Linux command line to burn my DVDs. I often use K3b, a simple DVD burning program for Linux. The fastest and easy way.
