I don't have a cd drive in my computer so I don't know how to burn a cd, but this works for usb's on 9front:
cat yourfile.iso > /dev/sdU*****/data

I don't know about Plan9/9legacy, but on 9front the cd is displayed in 
the filesystem, e.g. /mnt/cd via cdfs.

In there are data tracks and audio tracks, I think directories like 
d1..dn/a1..an. Also on writable disks wa and wd. Burning the iso is just 
copying it somewhere there and deleting the wd file afterwards.

I don't know if cdfs exists on Plan9. Here's the man page:

http://man.postnix.pw/9front/4/cdfs

At least the man page exists for Plan9.

Btw if you want to burn files you have to create an iso somewhere with 
the contents and burn that. Burning files directly would result in data 
tracks that most systems won't read because it's not 9660.

Also see this page for an example:
