[Aussie-sun] Burning RaQ4-20022007.iso from Zeffie to 80 min CD-R? File too big?

Hi,

I've purchased and now downloaded Zeffie's updated Raq4 restore CD image 
and I've encountered a problem getting it burnt to a CD-R

I'm only finding 700 MB (80 min) CD-R's available and the filesize of the 
Zeffie restore CD ISO file is bigger than the reported capacity of my 
current bundle of CD-R's. I only have a normal CD-R drive available at the 
moment (connected to my Sunblade 1000 workstation) so I'm trying to use 
that.

I keep getting this error out of the Solaris 9 'cdrw' utility using my 8x 
write-speed Teac CD-R drive:

1614 craig@lios #----> cdrw -i RaQ4-20022007.iso
Looking for CD devices... Initializing device...done.
Size required (703696896 bytes) is greater than available space (681986048 
bytes).

Are there any larger-capacity CD-R's around or is the only way to get this 
burnt to a disk to use a DVD-R instead?

Craig.
