Yup, it's what k3b and all the other programs use:

mkisofs - to create the iso file that you want to burn
cdrecord - to do the actual burning

Of course, there are a trillion options to deal with, but that's the fun of working with the command line, right?? :wink:

I find that bashburn does a decent job of burning CDs without using a heavy GUI.

I use 3 little scripts for all my burning tasks:

To burn the content of a directory to CD-R:
burncd:
Code:
#!/bin/sh
/usr/bin/mkisofs -rJ "$@" | /usr/bin/cdrecord -v fs=6m dev=1,0,0 -


The same but to DVD-R:
burndvd:
Code:
#!/bin/sh
/usr/bin/growisofs -dvd-compat -Z /dev/cdroms/cdrom0 -rJ "$@"


To burn .iso files to CD-R:
burniso:
Code:
#!/bin/sh
/usr/bin/cdrecord -v fs=6m dev=1,0,0 "$@"


Examples:
burncd ~/Mail
burndvd ~/documents
burniso install-x86-minimal-2004.2.iso

I also installed K3B, but I have not used it yet ;-)
