How to burn 801MB iso file

rated 0 times [ 11] [ 0] / answers: 1 / hits: 5284 / 2 Years ago, wed, april 20, 2022, 4:48:55

I have ubuntu 11.10 (XFce) and I download Xubuntu 13.04 64Bit iso file that have 801MB and both brasero and XFburn can't burn that image on 800MB CD-R. Can I burn that image on that CD using overburn (those programs don't have that option, I use to do that on Windows but never on GNU/Linux) or do I need to buy larger CD?

You probably won't find a CD that will (naturally) support that size file, and overburning isn't recommended due to issues.

I'd recommend using a DVD instead, or if that's not an option, a USB drive.

EDIT: I'd emphasize trying to get a DVD... I personally had many issues with using my 8 GB USB drive. The first time I attempted a DVD install was fully successful.
