I wish someone could explain to me how a 665 MB image fit onto a 650 MB CD. 
All my CDs are 650 and even though I was positive it wouldn't work, it did. 
Especially strange is that the drive I used has been known to "imagine" data
on a blank CD and refuse to write, claiming there wasn't enough space.

While we're on the subject of Pinstripe, I'm planning on installing it
tonight on my system.  Has anyone else tried it/able to offer some words of
wisdom?

Lilo predates teletubbies by a few years. ;)
