aRTee Posted March 26, 2003 Report Share Posted March 26, 2003 I just went for mirrors that are not on the 9.1 list, but on the 9.0 list; they had the rc3 versions, but the md5sums are the same, so nothing different there. (As we all know...) Got ~30kB/s which is my max speed. (I know that server, in the Netherlands can do nice speeds, a friend once downloaded all 3 isos of mdk9.0 in about five minutes.... If I'd have thought about it, I'd have arranged for him to set up an ftp server, I think he has at least 10Mbit/s upload speed..) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest joehill Posted March 26, 2003 Report Share Posted March 26, 2003 shit, got the first two iso's overnight, no fuggin blanks! gotta go ta Walmart real quick. decided gonna install on sep partition, if I can disable all that AA we'll see, but it would have to blow me away to get me away from my perfectly functioning 9.0 system. if i am not impressed, my next move is to Debian folks...

phunni Posted March 26, 2003 Report Share Posted March 26, 2003 I don't really care if it is really slow - I'm happy just to wait. I just hope I don't lose it part way through! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Falcdragon Posted March 27, 2003 Report Share Posted March 27, 2003 Kiwis ftp://debian.co.nz/ has the 9.1 Iso's it's a fairly fast mirror. It's also NZ only international connections are blocked. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aRTee Posted March 27, 2003 Report Share Posted March 27, 2003 I came home last night finding that halfway through the second cd the download had broken off, and the server was not allowing any connections... Went to the mdkclub serverlist and wget -c on the second cd, which finished around 9pm, the 3rd is still underway (checked this morning before leaving for work), may take between 5 and 9 hours; unless it gets loaded even more.. The bad thing: yesterday evening I would have had plenty of time, but now it looks like I may have to wait until sometime next week... Unless I manage to do things tonight of course. Keeping my fingers crossed... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have them at home in hamiltonI was gonna put them up on my public server, but anon has it covered on mandrakeusers.com not that i can take advantage of it now but why not put it up temporarily to help ease the burden on the swamped mirrors? just an idea. :) ciao!
