Fedora has a website with information about creating discs for their distribution. It is a bit convoluted but they do have to cover a number of methods.

Personally I've moved away from discs, or systems that cannot boot off flash drives because flash booting is just so much nicer. So if your hardware has the capability to boot off flash then I suggest you leave discs in the past where they belong and focus on current technology.

A few clicks and you're done
