I've created a custom pclinunx os minime remaster for a friend. The only thing it lacks is a CD burning program. The problem is that I'm on dialup and can't use synaptic to install K3b. I don't know if I have the dev tools needed to compile it. Can you recommend me a light CD burner app with small size and few dependencies?
It might be simpler to build your own frontend for cdrecord if you have some programming skills. I did something similiar for a friend and created a very mini gui front-end for mount. Not the full-range of possibilities but only the small number of things she wanted to do. I used unicon for it but there are many options out there.
cheers,

No I don't have programming skills. I'd be grateful if you send that program to me.
And I'd be grateful for world peace. Sadly, I didn't keep it. It was some time ago. Even if I had it, sending you the source code might not be very useful if you don't know anything about programming. If you want to learn, you can visit this site: http://unicon.sourceforge.net/
The Unicon manual is freely available from that site.
