Many users reported excellent speeds for the ISOs, just go read the comments in MandrakeClub (sure, some people didn't get such speeds, and some compained in the beginning but it improved). BTW, it looks from http://torrent.mandrakesoft.com:6969/ that at least 2658 users have complete sets of ISOs (and it seems the torrent was changed now to be one per CD-set instead of one per ISO?). 2658*2.1GB is a *lot* of data ... there's no way Mandrake would be able to pay that (assuming all the users who currently have the full set had used FTP from a Club-only FTP server). > Where is the md5sum for this distro ? Apparently not needed with Bittorrent, though Danny has posted his in the Club (in the comments on the current story). </disclaimer> Regards, Buchan - -- |--------------Another happy Mandrake Club member--------------| Buchan Milne Mechanical Engineer, Network Manager Cellphone * Work +27 82 472 2231 * +27 21 8828820x202 Stellenbosch Automotive Engineering http://www.cae.co.za GPG Key http://ranger.dnsalias.com/bgmilne.asc 1024D/60D204A7 2919 E232 5610 A038 87B1 72D6 AC92 BA50 60D2 04A7 -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.2.2 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iD8DBQE/jWcjrJK6UGDSBKcRAl/CAJ9wNpdRRF7h66URyzGEjFd1ATAhLgCgsReY VPowtkRPViQUSoDvEYnlpU0= =3mKY -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
