Every cd-r works in DOS, when you have a program which can use it.
(no driver needed)
The problem is that I don't know any DOS burner program.
Use Linux cdXroast (or equivalent programs for command line)

The computer has to be able to deliver a STEADY data stream of at least 150
KB/s (single speed)
It will work if the computer is able to do so. (Otherwise you will run out
of data, get a buffer underrun, and the media will be ruined)
