<br>
The limitation is not actually the iso format but the squashfs
filesystem for the live system.<br>
When that goes over 4GB, the file cannot be stored in the
filesystem the usb/iso uses.<br>
<br>
More details here:<br>

<pre class="moz-quote-pre" wrap="">Hi Angelos
Just a quick question about the ISO size limit that has been bugging me
last night.
How does projects like Scientific Linux or RHEL manage to get ISOs of more
than 4GB?
I think that the aim of the OSGeoLive project is to fit the ISO on a DVD,
am I correct?
If I may be presumptuous, why doesn't the OSGeoLive project start moving
away from a DVD ISO, to an iso that can run only from USB, or is this
limitation of 4GB a Ubuntu issue?
Please correct me if I am wrong.
Pieter
