But, the Windows 2000 CD gives me "NTDETECT failed" .

Are other people having this problem with Infra Recorder?

That's despite I gotten the boot image with BBIE and selected the settings equivalent to Nero:

The segment at 0x7c0 and the size at 0x4 and "None" for emulation. This is OK with Nero.

It's looking like I'm forced to use Nero.

I don't know anything about recording programs on a programmer or command line scale but I heard of a a Kbyte application called

Fireburner

I keep seeing it pop up every once a while.

I also would try

Alcohol 120%

Which I loved to use in the past but I had messed up installation.

Then there is

Cheatah Burner

which can even run in DOS.

If the file is not that diffrent I would try any random burner program.

The only down side to Nero is the fact it keeps making a IMG and then burning it forcing to use my space.

You can try this excellent, free, lightweight CD / DVD / HD DVD / Blu-ray burning application:

i also vote for imgburn

ImgBurn is the best free application for image burning. If you need other features try BurnAware Free Edition, it has many features.

Once I needed to make a bootable disc out of a directory with the disc files in it.. I ended up using nLite for this task. It automatically whipped up a bootable ISO and I was able to burn it with no problems.

Oh and Infrarecorder is awesome cuz it has a 64-bit version, and in Vista it SMOKES when it's burning. SMOKES.
