Hello all, first of all sorry for the corssposting madness, but I have no
clue where to go exactly.

I have a Power Mac G4 swith the Apple "SuperDrive".
In fact this drive is a Pioneer DVR-103.
Apple system profiler says it is a DVD-R\CD-RW drive, but the product
specifications of Pioneer says it's also DVD-RW.
When I try to insert a DVD-RW disc, MacOS says that the disc needs to be
formatted and when I hit OK it says that the disc is protected.

Any help here? Anybody here that has experience with the DVR-103 on a G4 and
it's DVD-RW capabilities?
