You will need two tools and possibly a recompilation of your kernel.
1. You'll need to get a program called mkisofs this will turn a directory structure into a raw cd track image. It can be retrieved via anonymous ftp from tsx-11.mit.edu:/pub/linux/BETA/cdrom/mkisofs-1.05.tar.gz
2. You will then have to get a program called cdwrite which will write a raw data track image onto a cdr. This can be found (via anonymous ftp) at tsx-11.mit.edu:/pub/linux/distributions/debian/buzz/source/misc/cdwrite-2.0-1.tar.gz
3. You will have to have scsi generic support compiled into your kernel for cdwrite to work, you will want to make a symlink from /dev/sg? (depending on which general scsi device your worm drive is (the first shown in the kernel startup messages is /dev/sga etc. [be careful with this you don't want to accidentally spam your hard drive trying to burn a cd])) to /dev/cdwriter { the default device that cdwrite tries to write to }.
