Did you check the checksums? Bad download?

Is the CentOS-7-x86_64-DVD-2009.iso really too big to burn on a

blank disk isn't big enough.

Terry,
The checksums are perfect. What I am probably looking for is anyone
who CAN burn that iso to a blank DVD-R or DVD+R. If Brasero won't do
it, is it because the iso image is just every-so-slightly too large?
In this particular situation, dd-ing the image to an 8GB thumb drive
is not a player because the target machine is a 2011 vintage Dell
PowerEdge that does not support booting from thumb drives.

According to wikipedia DVD-R gets you the closest: 4,707,319,808 (MAX)
CentOS-7-x86_64-DVD-2009.iso bytes: 4,712,300,544
It's only slightly over, it's possible that at least k3b and maybe
xfburn supports 'overburn' . (I remember this more from the CD days
than DVD though).
Otherwise I wonder if you could use 'ISO Master' and downsize it
slightly.
Anthony,
THANK YOU. Yours is precisely the answer I was looking for. That iso
file should never have been released as part of the general distribution.
I wonder how I could ask for that iso to be rebuilt to a size that
fits on a blank DVD.

There is a program called "PlopBootmgr" that can be installed on a CD
that will allow systems to boot from a usb drive that don't have that as
a boot option.
