New You could do it with a tool-chain approach.
There are a number of existing tools that can write to DVD+-R(W) including boot images. And hand-rolling a boot image shouldn't be hard. But I guess the thing you're looking for is a clever script some smart guy has written to make it easy, yes? Have you looked at any of the GUI burning software? Some of them might be able to do what you're looking for.

Is it enough to love
Is it enough to breathe
Somebody rip my heart out
And leave me here to bleed
 
Is it enough to die
Somebody save my life
I'd rather be Anything but Ordinary
Please

New Couple I've seen since last night
Mondo Rescue - pukes on lib dependancies and have I did my 6th lib (you are in a twisty maze filled with doors that look alike) I said screw it.

The I tried cdrec, but ran out of time at the office when it failed. I'll continue that later.

New Well, considering your question before...
on backup solutions, Amanda seems like a good idea now.

cdrw-taper

Description: taper replacement for amanda to support backups to CD-RW or DVD+RW The Amanda CDRW-Taper is a drop-in replacement for the taper component of the Amanda backup system. CDRW-Taper makes it possible to dump backups to CD-RW or DVD+RW instead of tape.

CDRW-Taper is licensed under the GNU General Public License.

No matter how much Microsoft supporters whine about how Linux and other operating systems have just as many bugs as their operating systems do, the bottom line is that the serious, gut-wrenching problems happen on Windows, not on Linux, not on Mac OS. -- [link|http://www.eweek.com/article2/0,1759,1622086,00.asp|source]

Given enough shellac, even turds can be polished.
