I'm not sure how any of this is relevant either to packaging or laptops,
but the short answer is:

    - create a CD image using mkisofs.  Read the manpage for it, or look it
      up on the web -- it's a popular program

    - burn that image with cdrw (Solaris specific, but very easy to use) or
      cdrecord (common on many unix platforms, but has a stunningly
      complicated set of commandline options, most of which you can
      probably ignore)

Probably much simpler, but not "through terminal" would be to use Nautilus,
or to get a copy of xcdroast.
