Official OS X Lion.app Installer from the Mac App Store.This is version 10.7.0 (release). To update to 10.7.5 please visit the combo update link from Apple.
I also made a bootable drive using InstallESD.dmg. I have three Mac computers so having the bootable Lion install drive makes it easy to install/re-install on all Mac computers.

Mar 25, 2013 The work around is to revert to a previous version of Mountain Lion which could be done easily if ML came with an install disk. Since it didn't I need to find the InstallESD.dmg file for 10.8.1 manually. By manually I mean on the internet. That file is not housed on my computer as it was shipped with 10.8.3 installed allready.

Hint author here. I'll agree that in most cases you would be better off using a USB flash drive (8 gig drives cost practically nothing these days.) In my case, my employer asked that I create some bootable DVDs, and I didn't want to have to order a bunch of dual-layers. I'm sure there are others in similar circumstances.

I haven't tried the script, but it probably won't work in bash without properly escaping and/or quoting the paths with spaces on them.

Burn OS X Mountain Lion installer to single-layer DVD

You're absolutely right - good catch. The paths were fully escaped when I submitted the hint, but it looks like the backslashes got stripped out after submission.
I'll see about getting it fixed. In the meantime, you can download the escaped version here:

Were they back slashes, or forward slashes?

Burn OS X Mountain Lion installer -revised script

The shell script does require some modification. I have copied my version of the script below.

I had the install app in a Downloads folder. You will need to change that reference to where your copy of the app is located. This ran in Terminal, after I saved the text as 'MLresize.sh', using nano, and ran on the file.

(I've got a lot of blank DVDs. And they won't get zapped by lightning like my Base Station did.)

The script ran in a few minutes, much less time than actually burning the DVD.
I just dropped the created .dmg file into Disk Utility, selected it, and clicked on burn.
After burning, the disc shows in System Preferences->Startup Disk as bootable.
Although I haven't tried it out yet.

How exactly does this work? How can you reduce the uncompressed size of an image without losing any data?

Burn OS X Mountain Lion installer to single-layer DVD

The image itself has a fixed size of 4.75 GB, but contains only 4.35 GB of data. All we're doing is trimming the free space.

Burn OS X Mountain Lion installer to single-layer DVD

So you can't just use Image/Resize in Disk Utility? (I'd try it, but I don't have Mountain Lion.)

Burn OS X Mountain Lion installer to single-layer DVD

Resize only works for read/write disk images, so, no.

Burn OS X Mountain Lion installer to single-layer DVD

I just copy/pasted the stuff for terminal, not bothering with the bash and everything worked as advertised. Verifying burnt disc now. Thanks!!

@kirkmc Why do you need Lion DiskMaker? Can't you just restore the InstallESD image in Install X Mountain Lion/Contents/SharedSupport using Disk Utility?
I have an installer on a USB and an SDHC Card using the restore method.

Burn OS X Mountain Lion installer to single-layer DVD

@derekJAB,
you can in fact restore InstallESD.dmg. Just remember to mount the dmg for Mountain Lion.
If you don't, disk utility will throw you an error.

Burn OS X Mountain Lion installer to single-layer DVD

So I already deleted the Install thing in applications. I copied the InstallESD.dmg image to my desktop (cause I like to keep things on my desktop) and changed the script accordingly. That should work for you too.

The script as it stands right now (18oct2012) requires that the user has copied the InstallESD.dmg out of the contents of the installation app to the desktop. To get the script to work properly without copying over the dmg first, the hdutil attach -nobrowse /Applications/Install.. line should be uncommented, and the line following should be commented out: Otherwise the script issues some errors and burns a blank DVD.
Still a very nice hint.

Burn OS X Mountain Lion installer to single-layer DVD

If you do want to get the Mountain Lion installer InstallESD.dmg to fit on a single layer DVD, you can use the overburn feature of hdiutil in Mac OS X.
AFTER inserting a blank DVD, bring up terminal, navigate to the dmg folder and type:
hdiutil burn InstallESD.dmg
Depending on your brand of DVD your mileage may vary.
