 If you are locking for a nice GUI to burn your own CD's you
 can use X-CD-Roast, it has a lot of options, I found it very
 usefull for me!

 It's a really long URL, isn't it?

Except that it doesn't support Pinnacle drives!  DOH!

My guess would be 'mkisofs'. With mkisofs it's almost child's play to create
a CD-ROM image. A subsequent 'cdwrite' will then make the CD. Also very easy
to use. A welcome change from programs like 'Gear'.

Just two command lines and go!

   We use mkisofs and cdwrite with a yamaha 102 (about $600).   Once you
make the iso image you can mount it up using -loop and give it a try before
you use cdwrite.   Also you direct the output of mkisofs to a partition and
mount
this up without using  -loop ( this is useful for testing out distributions
like debian
before we burn the CD) 

mkisofs -o /mnt/deb.iso -R -P lsl  /mnt/distributions/debian

cdwrite -s 2 -D /dev/sgc --yamaha /mnt/deb.iso

If you don't have a CDROM burner but do have a 4mm or 8mm tape you can
direct the output to the tape and send this off to the CDROM plant ... We
did this
for our first 5 or 10 CDs back when the burners were ~ $4000.
