Description anthony 2008-07-07 07:37:25 UTC
So it appears that the LiveCD 2008 no longer fits on a normal CD-R (from 2006) which were typically >702MB in capacity. The AMD64 LiveCD is 708MB in size and will not fit on our CD-R's. So now we have to go buy new blank discs just to get a live cd. yay :) Has anyone else been seeing a problem with this and is there a way we can reduce it to just fit on a normal 700MB disc?

Reproducible: Always

Actual Results:  
Can't burn LiveCD to CD-R disc

Expected Results:  
Ability to burn to standard 700MB cd-R
