To whoever this is assigned

Having seen this bug for other iso/media you might want to take a look at https://bugs.mageia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=8830#c3
to auto-detect over sized iso images.

It would be good to check the Mageia 5 Isos before they are released. But maybe now it can't happen anymore?

Current KDE LiveDVD are 1.7 GB, so I don't think that fitting them on 1.4 GB DVDs is supported. I didn't even know that such devices existed :p

They are still available for video-camcorders; very hard to get and expensive as all hell.  Used to be given away as a business card with pre-loaded collateral.

Closing as INVALID then. I also think it isn't supported.
