That depends on what you mean by "default". The whole distribution just
barely fits on one CD - if everything is recompressed with lzma. So it
is likely that you would be able to put a sizeable subset of the
distribution + sources on the CD - as long as you don't need, say, the
xorg packages.
In this case, I doubt that the ISO images I'm creating are going to be
much use to you though.
