Thanks for letting someone know for me.
I did get the message while trying to burn it in Vinux, that the over-burn 
option would not help.
I was doing that attempt from the DVD I had to use for that 698 MB version I 
downloaded.
As I mentioned before, the image is a working image, I have burned it to a 
USB drive, and a DVD, but it is supposed to burn to a CD, but won't.

I've forwarded the mail to someone in the project.

698mb is fine for a 700 or 750mb disk, but I think there's an option you 
actually have to use when burning; otherwise, as you
described, it wont' happen. in the windows side of the house, this used to 
be called overburn, if I'm not mistaken, in Nero.

Subject: contacting Vinux Project

Hi All,
If anyone here knows how to reach anyone in the Vinux project, let them know
that their file on their site is too large for a CD.
The file is Vinux-3.0.2-I386.iso
It is the first file on the download site.
I tried to contact them, and I could not understand the audio challenge, I
was able to make out three of the words, but that was apparently not enough.
Anyway, they need to know that I burned it to a DVD and it booted okay, and
I installed onto a USB drive, and it boots okay, so I doubt that it was a
bad download, since I downloaded it twice, and both times it read that it
was 698 MB, yet both windows and Vinux would not burn it to a disk, saying
it was too large for a CD.
I tried disks all day with no success.
I would have given up on it, but I'm doing this for someone who wants to try
Vinux.

Glenn
