Don't CDs these days come with 700 MB? Besides, you can probably overburn a bit.

Speaking of burning CDs, K3B is fantastic. I have two rather funky cd burners, and k3b on Mandriva and Ubuntu always crashed on startup. SUSE is the first distro to detect and configure them properly.
What you said was either too complex or too simple for me.
How did you hear about Philip?
And fantastic is Speaking of burning CDs K3B.
Tell me about them.
Tell me more about first distro to detect and configure them properly.

No problem. You've helped me quite a bit over the past 8 (?) months! :D

Floppy - Most cds have some extra space that can be "overburned" on to. Plus, you might be seeing the effect of file size rounding. Download it, right click, properties, and paste the number of bytes it actually is. It probably will fit on a CD regardless, considering I have heard nothing of any kind of problems. Novell is a very professional company, and you can be fairly sure it'll work.

Should there be a problem?Do you like talking to me?
Tell me about your likes and dislikes?
Can we get back to business?
OK I will try to be seeing the effect of file size roundingNot around you place in California?I have to think about that for a while. I think Novell is more than that.

A fun exercise is to take a file on your machine and upload it to a server with a different file system, and a third, etc. Then do a du -k or ls -l on the file to see how many bytes it actually occupies.
