Did you check the checksums? Bad download?

Is the CentOS-7-x86_64-DVD-2009.iso really too big to burn on a DVD-R?
Brasero under Centos 7.9 and Fedora 33 both say a 4.7GB blank disk isn't
big enough.

Terry,
The checksums are perfect. What I am probably looking for is anyone who
CAN burn that iso to a blank DVD-R or DVD+R. If Brasero won't do it, is it
because the iso image is just every-so-slightly too large?
In this particular situation, dd-ing the image to an 8GB thumb drive is
not a player because the target machine is a 2011 vintage Dell PowerEdge
that does not support booting from thumb drives.

According to wikipedia DVD-R gets you the closest: 4,707,319,808 (MAX)
CentOS-7-x86_64-DVD-2009.iso bytes: 4,712,300,544
It's only slightly over, it's possible that at least k3b and maybe xfburn
supports 'overburn' . (I remember this more from the CD days than DVD
though).
Otherwise I wonder if you could use 'ISO Master' and downsize it slightly.
