I've been bootstrapping daily (hourly) while testing something. During that time, if I forget to save the overlay file, I have to re-download it from prefix.gentooexperimental.org. This sucks for me because I can only get 40K/s from that host. Gentoo Developers have a method to add files manually to the mirrors, so that is what I did. Now, this method involves a host that every dev has access to, and a host that only the Gentoo Infrastructure team has access to. The file was the correct size on the first host, and incorrect size on the second. This incorrect file got pushed to the mirrors. To fix this, I removed the file from all the hosts involved and the mirrors will follow soon. Also, it is not worth researching the root cause because the whole system will move to a different host in a week or so (separate Gentoo Infrastructure project) So, how to get around this (until the mirrors sync), manually download the file from here: http://prefix.gentooexperimental.org/distfiles/ and place it in $EPREFIX/usr/portage/distfiles Have a nice day, Jeremy
