The firmware image is only 5M larger than the non-firmware one so if firmware one breaks the regular one must be pretty close to the precipice too. > Another option is to increase the size of the ISO a little, but we're > already very close to the limit of what will fit on a 650 MB CD. > > I've suggested raising the CD size from 650 to 700 MB in the past and > people didn't like it, but that was quite a while ago.

Google shopping finds them if you explicitly ask for 74mins but if you are just looking for CD-R then it's 80mins across the board. The firmware image is currently 648M so it's pretty close to the limit. Ian. -- Ian Campbell Law of the Jungle: He who hesitates is lunch.
