If this runs from a CD - how does my DVD/CV burner operate?

It looks like I have to use a separate program (at least that is the way the 
winxp works with my burner) to 'accumulate' the group of files then burn the 
batch to the DVD/CD.

Anyway, linux always sounded like the answer to M$ - but I'm still stuck 
with win(xx.)
