Reiver_Fluffi Posted October 7, 2005 Report Share Posted October 7, 2005 I've only got 128kbps so I doubt I'll do an apt-get. I have the DVD at least :P Many thanks for all your input guys, much appreciated. Might be some posts later around the weekend after I've installed :P <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Please do, I'm interested in trying it on the old relic, be good to hear how you get on with it.

Reiver_Fluffi Posted October 10, 2005 Report Share Posted October 10, 2005 The second DVD, I've tried but it seems to fail, not sure why. I've been using jigdo to download, since they recommend this. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> No wonder, i'm throttling it right now, although it is handy when one of the mirrors is hosted by your ISP, which I believe is having an profound influence on my d/l.

ianw1974 Posted October 11, 2005 Author Report Share Posted October 11, 2005 I downloaded with FTP in the end, the jigdo stuff was a complete waste of time. The first DVD I thought I'd downloaded fine, I could access it as an ISO, but it failed to burn. I figured something had gone wrong, so I downloaded it with FTP instead. It was much quicker, even though they stated jigdo would be faster! Well, I could install fine if I mount the ISO and do it that way, but when I burnt this one, I get problems trying to read it. Bizarre. Maybe I need to burn it slower, I did the DVD at 4x, thinking this would be fine. I guess not! :P As it happens, I also have downloaded DVD 2 as well now, and shall be attempting with that this weekend. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
