Description Dan Griggs 2005-11-28 19:50:26 UTC
Bug only of passing interest but I notice that K3B and others all make it clear that the ISO for CD2 is to large to fit on a standard CD-R. I know, It's not technically a bug but it is an item that would be of interest to your average guy.

What about adding size check to the ISO creator script? The script should check the final size of the ISO image and abort when the size exceeds 700MB (AFAIK the real value is about 702MB).
Comment 2 Ruediger Oertel 2005-11-29 11:23:45 UTC
well, the problem is writing the crystall-ball code to determine if
we are creating a DVD or a CD (or a CD with 650M limit ...)
I don't really see this easily fixable
Comment 3 Ruediger Oertel 2006-02-01 01:02:56 UTC
ok, lars added some code to the script using some heuristics ...
