I think that what you will find in operation is that you need about 1G of disk
space to store/build your intended CD image.  Then you write to CD from that
disk image.  I use a Jaz drive for that.  Watch out that you wind up not having
enough free disk space...the recorders I have seen don't allow incremental
writes.
