Cannot burn Mountain Lion to DVD !!!

I tried burning the InstallESD.dmg file to a DVD so that I may do a clean install like I did with Lion.. But Disk Utility says the mountain lion image is too big to burn!! HTF am I going to do a clean install now?!!!!


The method is from the Egg Freckles website.. a tradition/common method of crerating a DVD for OS x.

MacBook Pro, Mac OS X (10.7), 8GB/500GB HDD/GeForce GT 330M

Yes, LionDisk Maker will work with Mountain Lion. You would use this before you install Mountain Lion, by doing all the formatting/searching of the InstallESD.DMG file for you.


If you install Mountain Lion/Lion, after installation it removes that file, that is why you need to do this before you install it, or you would have to redownload it.
