Hold fire for a little bit, as that was the old ISO. The master server at StarDiv.de (<ftp://ftp.stardiv.de>) has been having some problems (they're changing ISP at present), so the new ISO has not yet been put up. If you will send me a snail mail address, I'll send you the actual CDs by post (I'm in Ipswich, Queensland), then you won't need to download the ISOs (there are two of them). > Can > you help? We can't find CD's with more space than 700MB. And you won't either... Some drive/software combinations allow "over-burning", or putting more than the standard size on a CD. My Mandriva machine, coupled with a DVD/CD writer, actually burned tha old ISO without a murmur, hence the mistake with the one made available (I always do a trial burn first, mainly to ensure that it auto-runs the installer under Windows (my leas favourite OS, but I have a Win 98 and a Win ME box available for testing purposes, and for doing my tax online). > -- Alex Fisher Co-Lead, CD-ROM Project OpenOffice.org Marketing Community Contact Australia/New Zealand http://distribution.openoffice.org/cdrom/
