I'm installing OpenBSD AMD64 current (4.5) as of 12/19/2009 12:11:00 PM. I am at the step where it says "Getting base45.tgz"..it started out saying it would require 40 or more minutes and seems to be transferring data from the CD to hard-drive at a rate of 20 KB/sec. Why is it going so slow?
My DVD/CD drive has a DVD read-speed of 16X and a CD-ROM read speed of 48X. Given that, a trnasfer rate of 20 KB/sec seems awfully slow...am I missing something?
