I can't see how you can finalise a disc that's been burnt from an ISO.
Finalising is closing off an uncompleted file system / closing a
session.  The ISOs for installing Linux are images that already in that
state.  If they distributed unfinished ISO images, there'd be an awful
lot of systems that couldn't read the disc.  It usually takes a system
set up for burning discs to be able to read unfinished ones, and even
then, some will only read their own unfinished discs.  That certainly
precludes PCs booting from a disc from the BIOS.
