[Lancaster] Another thought about CD burning

[Andy Baxter]

why not just use xcdroast, run as a single fullscreen app like people are 
saying? It has some root config options to  prevent users from doing various 
things, like changing the image directory. So just set all these to 
forbidden, and set up two default image directories; one with the preloaded 
isos in, which is set to read-only, and one which is exported via nfs for 
people to save their own isos to, which is set to read-write, but is 
automatically deleted when files are older than a week or so.

Then if someone wants to burn a preloaded iso, they just go to the machine, 
choose 'write tracks', and choose the iso to burn; if they want to burn 
something they have downloaded, then they save it to the 'burn' directory 
first, and then go to the burner machine.
