I have never had much success using the included burning tools in antiX probably due to my ancient rig. So many years ago I started using
wodim – write data to optical disk mediaI realize that usb drives are the preferred option, but for those of us who are still running old hardware, and want to use the cl to burn an iso to a cd or dvd then wodim fits the bill.
It is used from the command line, aka terminal
To gather info I use:$ wodim -inq Device was not specified. Trying to find an appropriate drive...

wodim -sao speed=0 antix-m8.5.isowhich translates to write data to optical disk, using sao (session at once) speed=0 (highest speed capable of) and finally the name of the iso file I am using to burn the cd, or dvd. You must of course open your terminal in the folder where your iso file resides.
Also you can burn audio and a variety of other formats.
you can find all options per command line(terminal)with
wodim --helpand
wodim dev=helpcheers,
