how much free disk space do you have on the partition that its trying to create the iso? i think by default it may try to create it in your home folder, but you can change the destination directory.

Enter this command in a terminal:

df -h

It should show you all the mounted disks and their current usage. You can then choose a place to save your final ISO file accordingly...

  when the pirate bay finishes a download it puts it on my desk top, i activate devede and have it sent backto my desk top as an iso. but sometimes when i have finished loading the info into it and ask it to write ,it says not enough free space or too many bytes ,not enough bytes available. thank you

on your tool bar simply go to Places->Home Folder this will open up your home folder in the file manager nautilus. at the bottom of the window it will say what your free space is.
