 Hi Ronald.

Size is an issue lately, things are getting added/pulled out of 
the mainline CD image as a result of the development process. 
A DVD-R(W) will do the trick. Also the iso's are mountable in a 
Virtual Machine and there is USBcreator for thumbdrives.

You can compare MD5sum hashes if you are concerned about 
the integrity of the download.

Realtime disscussion of Natty is found on IRC @ #ubuntu+1 on 
irc.freenode.com and we have some techberts in our own 
#ubuntu-au IRC channel which may also provide answers/hints.

Natty Narwhal Alpha 1 ISO image -- too big for CD-R?

2010-12-31 Thread Ronald
Happy New Year fellow Ubuntuers! :-)

I've just downloaded Natty Narwhal Alpha 1 ISO image [http://
cdimage.ubuntu.com/releases/natty/alpha-1/natty-desktop-i386.iso] and
the size is 733 MB. I tried to burn it to my usual TDK Gold CD-R and
of course it's too big.

Has anyone tried Natty Narwhal? Did you have to burn the image to a
DVD-R disc instead of CD-R?

Thanks,
Ronald
