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?

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.
I want to use mondo to do full images of my system on DVD's ...

anyway, I do not use mondo, BUT it looks like they have RPMS that should work w/centos5 here:
http://mondorescue.muskokamug.org/rhel/5/
After following their instructions for installing:
http://www.mondorescue.org/docs/mondorescue-howto/installation.html
you should be able to just use the DVD command from here:
