   Hallo Jeff!   
      
    JS> Any easy way to burn a directory and any sub-directories to a DVD.   
      
   Yes. Use growisofs from dvd+rw-tools which will automagically create an iso   
   from a directory and burn it to a DVD.   
      
   For example for multiple directories this should work;   
      
    growisofs -J -R -Z /dev/dvd -speed=2 \   
    -graft-points /directory1=/home/user/directory1 \   
    /directory2=/home/user/directory2   
      
   I don't believe there is any way to simply copy {,sub}directories to DVDs.    
   For that you'll probably want to use USB flashdisks instead such as this;   
      
    cp -a /home/user/directory1 /home/user/directory2 /mnt/usbflash   
      
   where /mnt/flashdisk is wherever you mounted a formatted USB flashdisk.   
      
   Het leven is goed,
