See Burning data to multiple disks using Discspan for instructions on how to make suitable iso images.
Use this to burn an iso on a dvd
growisofs -dvd-compat -Z /dev/dvd=disc.iso
and this on a cd
cdrecord -v -pad dev=/dev/cdrw1 Disk1.iso
TSBackup has two DVD burner installed Substitute /dev/dvd1
for /dev/dvd
for the second burner. The first one should be showing up as /dev/dvd but udev might have overwritten it on reboot in which case it is /dev/cdrom (hopefully not).
You can use -speed=1
if you are having difficulty burning a DVD.
