    I have a problem creating recovery disc(s) with my FZ 4000 CTO. The Create Recovery Disc Program said that it supports both Single Layer and Double Layer DVD. But when I tried to use Double Layer DVD, it gave me an error that said: The disc could not be created. It seems to work fine when I use Single Layer DVD. I tried 3 discs from Verbatim and Sony. None of them worked.

    How do I make it work with Double Layer DVD? I prefer to use Double Layer DVD because I only need 1 disc so that when I restore the system, I can just put the disc in and leave it alone until it finishes. With Single Layer I need 2 discs so that I need to sit there and wait until it asks for the 2nd disc.

    UPDATE: OK, I searched Sony website for support and the website said that Double Layer DVD is not supported eventhough the program said so.
    So now I use Single Layer DVD. It created the first disc just fine but when it tried to create the 2nd disc, it gave the same error message: the disc could not be created.

    How do I make it work for the 2nd disc?
