I've purchased an LG DVD Burner (GSA-E60L) External super Multi DVD Rewiter for my PE2950 Dell Server attached via USB.
Can someone guide me to set up the DVD with Linux, and which tools should I use to burn DVD?

will burn a dvd-r in data mode with the specified .iso file.  you can build .iso files with mkisofs from regular files.

see...

  # man cdrecord
  # man mkisofs

for more options

also, since the system sees the device already, if you have a GUI Desktop installed on the 2950, you can use k3b to create ISOs.
