There is nothing special about a DVD ISO. Just make an ISO
9660-compatible image with whatever data you want (in fact, neither a
DVD nor CD needs to contain a ISO 9660 file system at all). I usually
do something very similar to:

mkisofs -o dvdimage.iso -J -r datadir/

Then you can burn this "pre-mastered" image using (see growisofs man
page):

growisofs -dvd-compat -Z /dev/dvd=dvdimage.iso

This should be roughly equivalent to:

growisofs -dvd-compat -Z /dev/dvd -J -r datadir/
