Yes, it works as root. I was just investigating ways to set that only 
for growisofs. One way is to set it in /etc/profile, but that'll affect 
all processes. I'll let you know when I find the solution. One solution 
I can think of is to run ulimit followed by growisofs in a subshell.. 
but the issue is with being root. I'll let you know.

As for the kernel upgrade, this limit was imposed in 2.6.16 or something 
from what I read.
