Multi-DVD or (multi-CD) spanning backups with tar
Authored by: GlowingApple on Mar 14, '06 08:59:58AM

Technically I believe you would convert 4.7 GB to MB and then convert MB to KB:

4.7 * 1024 * 1024 = 4,928,307 KB

So 4928307 is the supposed max for a DVD (though usually DVD-R and DVD+R can hold a little more, so you could probably round up a bit or to be safe (allow space for the session open and close data, etc), round down a bit).
