Comment 6 for bug 651084

Bumped into this today and was disappointed.

WUBI has an arbitrary(?) source filesystem size of 900000000 set at compile-time. The authors decided that if the source filesystem is larger, it can't possibly be the right distribution and WUBI should fetch the ISO from the Internet.

This does not work so cheerfully when you are trying to use WUBI on a system where Windows is having trouble with wireless etc.

Per a quick Google search, the fellows at "http://hacktolive.org/wiki/Wubi_and_Super_OS" have already tracked down the culprit definition as "max_iso_size=900000000" in the source tree's /data/isolist.ini.

If this prevents foot shooting in other cases, a command-line option to ignore the limit would still be nice when using 1GB USB sticks and similar.
