I am new to openSUSE and here. I encountered some problem during the installation. I tried it several times. The first time I ran the normal graphical installation, the second time and third time also. The installation halt during the loading screen (the screen after selected the “Installation” option). Then I tried to run the installation in text mode. Appeared some error message. As written below.
(something) respawning too fast: disabled for 5 minutes.

Notice that burning at the slowest speed is no guarantee: the media and the
burner have to be designed for burning at that slow speed or results will
be worse.

On your DVD-R media it should have a speed printed on Eg: 16x
That’s what mine has, but I burn at 4x- that’s the slowest it lets me
16x is the fastest I can burn to it
Think of it like this:
If you think of 4 and 16 as speed in MPH or KPH as in the speed a car travels.
Now you know we are talking about speed in that context.
Imagine getting a piece of red hot iron out of a fire and you have to run it down your arm. The faster you can do it Eg: 16mph, the burn is going to be less deep than if you have to do it at 4mph.
Basically that’s what the laser in your burner does.
BUT yes, if the optical media is the quality of ‘dog turds’ then no matter what you do, you still have ‘dog turds’.

It is more complex than that.
Put a DVD on your burner, and try “dvd+rw-mediainfo /dev/dvd” on a blank.
On my verbatims (+R), I get:
Those are the available write speeds. If you force a different one, burn
will fail or be bad. The lower speed (2x) actually uses a non-compatible
system, it needs different media.
Read those two links I posted, there is a lot of info there.

Actually, not that simple, because the laser strength is adjusted
