If the CD is not a CDRW, I would get another CD that's a single write,
and use cdrecord, or k3b (on a machine that's not running 2.6.8-521),
and that should take care of the issues that you are having. I would
prefer cdrecord in this instance, since going with a terminal would be
easier. You can find instructions on how to use cdrecord (aka General
README) at

I'll try re-burning, but I hate to have to re-download the ISO files. Was wondering if it matters that I've tried re-writing to this single CD disc many times before (to try to burn this image). Could that be a problem? Should I use a fresh disc?
