We need the GMT offset of this date/time and an assurance that
timestamps are handled across timezones with the integrity that rsync
uses during the developer-reference machine-primary mirror- mirrors
process.
For example, I am in GMT+1100 and I see (Konqueror):
Mandrake/base:
[ron@small base]$ ls -l mdkinst_stage2.gz
-rw-r--r-- 1 ron ron 11859052 Jan 7 08:22
mdkinst_stage2.gz
This shows a +10 hour time difference. The size and 22 minutes in
both cases looks encouraging.
Your email is GMT+1, so if that is also the tz of your reference
mirror, all is explained.
But the KDE2.1 Konqueror Properties on it shows a size of 12,936,351
???
I believe what the command line says!
Interestingly, the KDE panel Show Desktop button leaves this
Properties dialog showing - KDE2 is certainly not quite there yet ...
However, today's cooker rsync download shows:
-rw-r--r-- 1 ron ron 11910195 Jan 9 05:21
mdkinst_stage2.gz
Summary:
After losing my Windows partition at the last Cooker install I
attempted, I am not inclined to try another Cooker install until I
receive multiple trusted assurances that such things will not happen
again.
