Nothing wrong with your growisofs line. That's what I use all the time
to write DVD isos, including FreeBSD install media.
It seems the drive is unable to recognize the media as a recordable one
(look at the cdrecord message: incompatible medium found and growisofs:
media not recognized as recordable dvd). Could you try with a different
brand/type disk?
Try both DVD+R and DVD-R. I've had this before: specific drives refusing
to work with specific media.
