I haven't tried, but with mini CD-R the only difference to CD-R is that the capacity is lower. The last lot of business card-sized mini CD-R I got were obviously just cut-down normal CD-R, as the ATIP info recorded on them still said 650MB... There should be no difference for mini DVD-R either. The laser runs out of burnable surface earlier, that's about it. > Can you burn a cd iso to a dvd?

However, unlike your harddisk, random read/write access isn't quite as good or fast. > I'm thinking it'd be kinda neat to burn a full gnoppix cd to a > mini dvd. Good idea, though consider that if you're doing it for maximum compatibility with any other computer you might come across, you will then need a dvdrom drive, and a drive which can read mini (do they all?).
