Oh, here is something you may need....

IMPORTANT NOTE for 6.0 users! Newer Linux kernels have ridiculously low
default memorylocked resource limit, which prevents privileged users
from starting growisofs 6.0 with "unable to anonymously mmap 33554432:
Resource temporarily unavailable" error message. Next version will
naturally have workaround coded in, but meanwhile you have to issue
following command at command prompt prior starting growisofs:

    * if you run C-like shell, issue 'limit memorylocked unlimited';
    * if you run Bourne-like shell, issue 'ulimit -l unlimited';
