I suggest you try using X-CD-Roast:

http://www.fh-muenchen.de/htbin/htimage/home/ze/rz/services/projects/xcdroast/d_xcdroast.conf?101,24

This is an X-based frontend to mkisofs and cdrecord (among other items). 
It includes all these items, and (if you've got the appropriate libraries)
a configure and make will get it working.  You may then need to set some
permissions to use it as an ordinary user, but it's more user-friendly
than the raw text-based programs.
