cdrecord needs a .ISO file as its input. you can use mkisofs to create
one fromm file(s), its a fairly complex command with a LOT of options,
but at its simplest, creating a simple RockRidge CD-ROM,
mkisofs -o mycd.iso -r dir-with-files
the specified dir will become the root of the CD. then you can use
cdrecord to burn mycd.iso ... see the respective man pages for more
options.
