Angelos, I see you point there however, 1 - I am not sure how much effort will take to have the common dataset loaded (if it not there already) and that will probably also limit demonstration domains 2 - Keeping the current size is indeed an option but the issue is that it didn't get loaded at all (still looking into the root cause of that)
As a final thought we have choice number 3: since OSGEOLive is growing with many projects and as new applications come out they will require even more space, why do not go directly for an 8GB target that would fit both recent DVD and USB sticks (and users will be happy to continue using such an usb stick afterwards and will likely bring around the live logo on it).

Right now we are at 3.5G which is near our up limit for creating a bootable USB stick. So I believe that there are 2 choices: 1. to get rasdaman to use the common dataset (natural earth etc) 2. to keep the same size of rasdaman datasets as they are now. If you wish to change the data, it is ok, as soon as the target size is the same as before. Thoughts?
