I have to agree re burncd.
Anyway, my notes on this subject show:
---
# how to burn cd, rather than dvd
mkisofs -o cd.iso -V label -J -r FILES_TO_BUILD_INTO_ISO
burncd -f /dev/acd0 data cd.iso fixate

## this is what xcdroast execs - i think the params change depending on the
size of data to burn

cdrecord dev= 1,0,0 gracetime=2 fs=4096k driveropts=burnfree
-v -useinfo \ speed=24 -dao -eject -pad -data /h...,iso [possibly something
else here...like /dev/... )
----
and for DVD
# from an ISO
growisofs -dvd-compat -Z /dev/cd0=BURN.iso
# From FS
growisofs -dvd-compat -Z /dev/cd0 -R -J -V VolID ./BURN/
