cd /your/tree
mkisofs -i -T -r -p -z -q -m -w -l -Z -o <some filename>
dd if=<some filename> of=/dev/<your_burner>

Assuming, of course, that FreeBSD supports talking to your_burner at a
constant minimum data rate (the hard part, and something Peter Dufault
has been working on).  Myself, I take the image that mkisofs spits out
and simply ftp it to the burner machine, which runs DOS and a TCP/IP stack.

P.S.  All the mkisofs options except -o are bogus - I'm just making
fun of its strange and arcane *required* optional arguments! :-)
