I was wondering what the best software was to burn ISO images with in Linux. The only CD burning software that comes with Mandrake 10 is for backing up data or making data discs in general. I have a DVD -/+ R-RW drive so I would also want software that I could use to utilize DVD burning with also and copying.

i think theres a dvd hack around too... dunno where, although it should be on your cds.
If you use kde then you can install k3b. This simplifies the process of burning any type of cd by twleve times. It really makes it simple. If you can't use k3b, then there is x cd roast, but I haven't use this one before.
