It's CD metadata.

Not as far as I know. I think you have to copy the data to the harddisk, format the disc with cdrwtool and then copy the data back to the disc.

pktsetup can be run before there is a disc in the drive. Therefore, these kinds of checks are done when you attempt to open the device for writing.
