"June 14 2000 - Mandrake 7.1/Alpha and SPARC/UltraSPARC (beta) are available. -
Along with Linux-Mandrake 7.1/x86 Final the betas of 7.1/Alpha and
SPARC/UltraSPARC are available for download and tests. We need many
beta-testers! Reports your installations on the Cooker list."

It seems to me that this request should be changed...  or maybe it's the
pointers that are wrong...  due to my location, downloads take several days; so,
is too much to ask that someone at LM give me an indication that it's worth
re-downloading hydrogen2-inst.sparc.iso...?

Willing to beta; but without a minimal response, what's the point?

Actually, if someone would be so kind as to send me the results of:

    for i in 1 2 3
      do
        head -c ${i}00000000 hydrogen2-inst.sparc.iso | md5sum
        tail -c ${i}00000000 hydrogen2-inst.sparc.iso | md5sum
      done

then, I could determine what part to re-download...

Thanks,
Pierre
