Do I need to do anything special (put the roms in a specified folder, add files, etc.) or just add the roms to the cd?

Your unzipped roms need to be in a folder called "gb", then burn them the same way you burn a NesterDC rom disc.

out of curiosity, can i USE my unfinalized NesterDC ROM disc for GnuBoy? It already has some SMS roms on it. By the way, how many tracks is it physically possible to put on a CD before it's unreadable? (i'll use up tracks before I use up the space on the CD)
You can go anywhere you want if you look serious and carry a clipboard.

Hmmm, i never try unclosed CD's so I dont know however I cant see any reason why you cant use your unfinalised disc as a Gnuboy rom disc especially if you dont have that many roms.

You can have as many tracks as possible until the CD is filled up.
