The basic steps involved in the above are:
* create a new Ardour session and import the mixed-down versions of each

of the tracks you want on the CD

* arrange your imported tracks in to whatever order you want, with

whatever gaps etc. you want between them

* add CD track markers at the start of each of your imported tracks on

the timeline (including track 1)

* export the entire session as a single WAV file with accompanying TOC

or CUE file

* use "cdrdao" to burn the WAV to disc, using the TOC/CUE file
As far as conforming to Red Book goes, the advice I've seen is to leave

at least two seconds of blank audio before track 1; that is, before the

first track marker that you place on the timeline.
When I did this recently, I used this as my guide:

and wrote up some of my own notes about it here:

Hope that helps!
