NOTE: USE OF THESE SITES IS DISCOURAGED!! If possible, use the Pseudo-Image Kit.
that's actually not true for us - we aren't discouraging anyone
from using our site - if they want to use the PIK that's great
but maybe it should be changed to
NOTE: You can reduce load on mirror sites by using the PIK (link) and
especially by using a mirror site that is closest to you!
i've tried using the PIK myself on sun solaris - for some reason, using
it in effectively an "out of the box" configuration simply doesn't work
for me - it appears to be working fine, but it takes approximately 4 days
to build a cd image. in the end i just did not have the time to debug
this and went back to rsync.
