Hi Chris, Sorry to take so long to respond to you; it's been a bit busy lately with the squeeze release and all... The rc2 amd64 xfce live image (now moved to the archive area of cdimage.d.o) looks like it's just too big to fit on a normal CD any more, and that's the most likely cause of your problem: $ ls -al debian-squeeze-live-rc2-amd64-xfce-desktop.iso -rw-r--r--+ 1 debian-cd debian-cd 847249408 2011-02-02 03:06 debian-squeeze-live-rc2-amd64-xfce-desktop.iso -- Steve McIntyre, Cambridge, UK.
