if you type './MakeCD --help', the optio that regulates disksize states:

-- discsize <disc size in bytes>
             Select a custom disc size (default 681000000).

that default translates to 649.5MB

Not my experience - the Coooker MkCd discsize parameter is ignored.

But there is a constant in the 9.0 mkcd script: discsize => 681000000.

This generates ISOs over 700MB in size.

Experimentally, you have to scale this down proportionally to produce the maximun size you want.

Unfortunately my optimum value has been lost by the rsync update of cooker/misc, but try 660000000 for starters?

Even so, the last CD may well exceed what you want.

There are all errors in MkCD/mkcd.
