wardevil Posted October 10, 2007 Report Share Posted October 10, 2007 For those who are interested in downloading Mandriva 2008.0 fast,I have made a metalink for Mandriva 2008.0 x86 dvd iso image. So just use aria2c with this metalink to download the iso image of the x86 32 bits dvd.... Enjoy.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
twanj Posted October 11, 2007 Author Report Share Posted October 11, 2007 Besides being fast, the above metalink also contains info for error recovery - so if you've tried downloading this file via another method and got a checksum error, you can use the metalink to repair it. and if you use it from the beginning, it will automatically repair any errors IF you use aria2 (the most advanced metalink client).
