    Can I burn CDs while running Linux live off usb?

    Ive been trying to burn a new iso image of Ubuntu 9.04 to reinstall grub for 9.10. Im currently running 9.10 off a usb, I try and write a cd off brasero but when Im ready to burn the cd it says theres only 1.7 MB or something available on the empty cd or DVD. I Imagine his has something to do with the fact its only a 4 GB usb stick and its trying to use that as a cashe? I dont know just talking out of my a**. Im still figuring things out.
    If theres a way to burn a CD and get around the limitation Braseros giving me I would love to know. Im in a bit of corner as far as my options to be able to reboot with a new OS. My wondows is not showing up in the boot either so Im stuck using the live CD/USB for now.
    The computer crashed when I tried to go ahead and burn the CD regardless of what it said about space. Seemed like a bad Idea now.
    Thanks
    I do have an SD card which Im not sure I can actually make into a boot drive but I would be willing to try.
