Single volume all-in-one ISOs for i386 and amd64 ?



Hi,

has it been noticed that jigdo-dlbd has exceeded the
size of a single medium ?
  http://cdimage.debian.org/debian-cd/8.1.0/amd64/jigdo-dlbd/
  http://cdimage.debian.org/debian-cd/8.1.0/i386/jigdo-dlbd/

I dimly remember that it was supposed to also serve as
all-in-one ISO for large USB sticks or surplus HDDs.

The next optical media size would be BD-R XL/TL with
nominally 100 GB and BD-R XL/QL with nominally 128 GB.
Did not see them yet.
If they get not formatted and have 100.0e9 bytes, then one
may assume at least 93 GiB of usable capacity.
Subtracting 5 percent for formatted media: 88 GiB.
Formatting and resulting size is at discretion of the user.

If somebody has such a rare and costly specimen (under glass
in protective atmosphere) the i'd be interested to see the
outcome of a run of

  xorriso -outdev /dev/srX -list_formats


Have a nice day :)

Thomas
