I didn't say you could burn an "ISO", *you* asked about that. An ISO-9660 is a data format, of which audio discs are not. However, I did say you could create an image, and burn that. ISO-like, in that you have *one* file that contains everything that's going to get burnt. I've certainly done that sort of thing before, albeit not on Linux. Where an image of an audio CD was created as a file on disc, then burnt to CD-WORM discs. The difficult part, initially, is in creating the image file. You may have to use two files (image of the audio, and table-of-contents), or you may be able to create a single master image for burning (the prior two things mentioned in one go). Once you've got that/them, you can burn your image to a discs on various different burning programs that offer the option. The master image for burning (and) discs doesn't have to be an ISO file, so long as you don't use a stroppy burning program that insists on the image being one. All the image needs to be is the stream of data that's going to appear on the disc. There are some programs which don't give you a raw image for burning, but add extra details to the file (e.g. instructions for burning). I'm told DD won't work, because it's not a direct dump of binary from the device, but still has some file system reading between it and the device. You can use cdrdao to get yourself an image plus table-of-contents file, and use those to burn a disc with. Those two files can be used to burn discs in Linux and Windows software, though you'll have to figure out which ones give that function. If you want a single master image file, you'll need to find something else to make it, I don't know the name of one off the top of my head. -- (Currently testing FC5, but still running FC4, if that's important.)
