Along the lines of yesterday.

"""
The problem is that the size of the InstallESD image is fixed at 4.75
GB; slightly larger then a 4.7 GB single-layer DVD. However, the actual
contents of the image occupy only 4.38 GB on disk, which will fit on a
standard DVD.

In order to cram Mountain Lion onto a standard DVD, we need create a
slightly smaller image file of the exact same format, copy the contents
over, then burn it to a DVD.
