I thought that Vinux uses Speakup.
I would rather not join a special list for Vinux, since I don't use it a 
lot, and I thought that some of the folks here could help.  I am on a Ubuntu 
list, but I would probably get the same response there.
I have burned many disks, in both windows and Linux, and when the 
Ubuntu/Vinux gives you the option to burn it, and it reads the blank disk in 
the drive and reads back that there would not be enough space, even with the 
over-burn option, I'd say I did the burn process properly, but the disk was 
not big enough.

Would you tell us, how did you try to burn this image? I've never any
 problem with burning Vinux images on CD.
 Also - do you really think it's proper mailing list?
