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.
