hey Angelos, if fat32 is the limiting factor, why is it put as is on the stick and not extracted? Some tools support that eg. Rufus for windows http://rufus.ie/ and that works well with pretty much every ISO i put on stick so far.
i am pretty sure that can be done as well on the command line or with some linux tool.. ede On 12/17/2020 12:30, Angelos Tzotsos wrote: > Hi, > > The limitation is not actually the iso format but the squashfs filesystem for > the live system. > When that goes over 4GB, the file cannot be stored in the filesystem the > usb/iso uses. > > More details here: > https://forums.linuxmint.com/viewtopic.php?p=1123257&sid=5c42d363988a2c6980ae256697991aa1#p1123257 > > Best, > Angelos > > On 12/17/20 12:28 PM, Gandalf the Gray wrote: >> Hi Angelos >> >> Just a quick question about the ISO size limit that has been bugging me >> last night. >> >> How does projects like Scientific Linux or RHEL manage to get ISOs of more >> than 4GB? >> >> I think that the aim of the OSGeoLive project is to fit the ISO on a DVD, >> am I correct? >> >> If I may be presumptuous, why doesn't the OSGeoLive project start moving >> away from a DVD ISO, to an iso that can run only from USB, or is this >> limitation of 4GB a Ubuntu issue? >> >> Please correct me if I am wrong. >> >> Pieter >> >> >> _______________________________________________ >> osgeolive mailing list >> osgeolive@lists.osgeo.org >> https://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/osgeolive > > > > _______________________________________________ > osgeolive mailing list > osgeolive@lists.osgeo.org > https://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/osgeolive > _______________________________________________ osgeolive mailing list osgeolive@lists.osgeo.org https://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/osgeolive
