I'm running a new install of Ubuntu 16.04 LTS and accessing a DVDRW disc formatted for data on a Windows computer.
The disc contains a directory containing a text file.
I am able to open the directory and open the text file but if I try to create a directory or save a file to the disc I get an error.
I have just installed this distro, so there may be a package that I should install. Any info would be most appreciated.
