I started out with xcdroast myself, but I eventually just tossed cdrecord
into a shell function in my .bashrc:
burn() {
sudo cdrecord -v -eject -speed=8 -dev=0,6,0 -data $1
}
I generate the iso image with "mkisofs -joliet /path/to/dir > file.iso",
then pop a blank cdr into the burner and "burn file.iso".
You'll want to run "cdrecord -scanbus" to find the device id of your
burner;
it's not necessarily going to be "0,6,0".
