How to make a Mountain Lion install disc?

Hi,

Ive looked all over the net for the answer to this and nothing I found has worked. I've installed Mountain Lion, but stupidly didn't do a complete new clean install like I usually would... I just downloaded it and installed over evrything and I'm getting some pronlems. I have re downloaded Lion, and have been trying to burn the InstallESD.dmg image file to make an install disc but it won't work. It keeps saying the DVD I am inserting doesn't have enough free space as the file is about 4.75gig I know other people are having this trouble and I'm wondering if anyone knows the solution to burning it to make an install disc?

cheers

Thanks davscanlon that's what I ended up doing. Unfortunately I got my brother to get me the USB while he was at the shops and he didn't know what I was doing and got me a 32gig USB which was a bit of over kill and ended up making it an expensive exercise because it cost $28 but oh well.
