It's many years since I've stored anything on an optical disk but your problem may be a case of confused formats. The ISO 9660 format, used for creating bootable .iso Linux installers, has to be written as one single item. If you want to treat an optical disk that works like a floppy or hard disk, you need the UDF format. There is a tool mkudffs to format the fisk, part of the udftools package, but my distro doesn't have it and I don't expect many do.
