Does the Ubuntu 13.04 disk image fit on a CD? [duplicate]

Solution 1:

You can't burn Ubuntu 13.04, or 12.10 ISO to a CD without first modifying the ISO. It would only fit on a DVD, since the ISO file size is almost 800MB. What you can do is make a bootable USB flash drive.

You can use UNetbootin to create the USB. For more information on how to install Ubuntu, and other ways that you can create bootable media for installation see Install Ubuntu 13.04

Solution 2:

You can burn the Ubuntu 12.04 ISO successfully to a CD, but the ISOs of Ubuntu 12.10 and later Ubuntu releases are too large for a CD, so you have to use a DVD instead or create a live USB Startup Disk. There are several ways to create an Ubuntu live USB Startup Disk. The easiest way to do it is by using the built-in Startup Disk Creator application.
