Well, what's odd is that the actual upstream RHEL 7.9 DVD WILL fit on a

Well I am batting 0 for 1000 today. I am clearly not a good resource at the
moment :). Thanks Lamar for checking the real source.
Sure, no problem. I had a similar problem with a different version of
CentOS, 8.3, which is too large to fit on a dual-layer DVD. I also had
a similar problem with another product altogether, pfSense, which will
no longer fit on a CD, even though the docs said 'CD/DVD image' and I
was trying to repurpose an old server, 64-bit capable but very early
64-bit, that had a CD drive (parallel ATA thinline!) with a special
connector, and I didn't have a DVD drive available. Oddly enough, that
old box can boot USB, but only certain sticks, and so I used an old 1GB
stick to boot pfSense on that box. I was prepared to boot an older
pfSense and upgrade up to current.....
