Title: Use DVD-ROM instead CD-ROM to install SME Server
Post by: stephdl on March 03, 2014, 11:31:12 AM

Due to a large growth of certain packages, you can't use a CD-ROM to burn the smeserver iso. You have to take now a DVD-ROM or use an Usb Key.  (http://wiki.contribs.org/Install_From_USB)

It is now a mandatory for all architecture : http://wiki.contribs.org/SME_Server:Download

For the moment there is a bug which forbid the installation from an usb-key with SME server 9 : http://bugs.contribs.org/show_bug.cgi?id=7931

Due to a large growth of certain packages, you should not use a CD-ROM to burn the smeserver ISO. You should now use a DVD-ROM or use a Usb Key. (N.B. Technically, you still can burn the smeserver 64 bit ISO to a CD-ROM provided the CD creation software is capable of writing more than the official disk capacity, but not the 32-bit version. Therefore, it is now strongly recommended to use a DVD-ROM or USB Key for both versions.)
