I noticed that the copied file on the destination DVD becomes read-only automatically. If I do a chmod +w on the file, the file becomes writable only momentarily before becoming readonly again! Does someone know what is it that I'm doing wrong? I'm accessing both the drives as /cygdrive/c and /cygdrive/d, the latter being the DVD+RW drive and the former my hard disk.
