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.

You top posted, ... I fixed it for you :D

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:

anyway, I do not use mondo, BUT it looks like they have RPMS that should work w/centos5 here:
