Help me get Ubuntu!

aetherh4cker · 07-18-2007, 07:29 PM

I downloaded the ISO from Ubuntu Home Page | Ubuntu , but I can't get it on a disc! Nero says that it won't fit! The ISO is 697 mb but Nero says the 'size on disk' is over 720!

Help! I'm being deprived of linux!

You're burning it as an image, correct?

Yeah, I am! I've burned images on discs before!

Not sure why this one doesn't like me...

Edit:
Well, I'm re-downloading and will try it again. Perhaps it is a problem with Nero? My version is rather old... is there any freeware I could use to put the ISO on a disc?

My dad uses Deep Burner. I trust it's good, since I never use Windows.

CDBurnerXP Pro got the ISO on my disc with seemingly no problems...

But now I'm having installation problems... I think I'll make a new topic for that one.
