I had to burn them to DVDs. I burned them in Vinux that I installed onto a USB drive.

You will get better support of Vinux on the Vinux list, as they know about the specifics of the system better than most of those on this list do. cds are measured in either megabytes and or minutes. 700,000,000 bytes is an 80-minute cd which is to say it holds 80 minutes of audio or 700 megs of data. 74-minute cds hold 650 megabytes of data. The actual capacity of the disk is best measured in the number of frames or sectors. 74-minute disks have 325000 2048 byte sectors, whilst 80 minute blanks hold at least 333,000 2048 byte sectors. Data uses 2048 byte sectors with more ECC than audio which uses 2352 byte sectors hence the difference in audio or data storage. You can get 90-minute blanks but they are rare. Regards, Kerry.
