Hi,
    I believe gparted will deal with everything you require for 
partitioning (http://gparted.sourceforge.net/), including a liveCD 
version. K3B does burn dvd ISOs: Tools -> Burn DVD ISO Image. If you 
mean burning a cd ISO to dvd, I'm not sure if it's possible with 
anything, let alone K3B.

Regards,
    Adam.
