YDL install on pismo fails

The original dvd-rom module on the pismo has trouble with certain 
oversize (ie. 700Mbyte) cdroms.  I was lucky and had a regular cd-rom 
available from another machine that let me do the install on the pismo. 
  Some people have had success by re-burning the cd-roms on different 
burners.
