Yes,
I had the same problem. It seems that start with gimp...rpm package all
other packages are damaged.

 Hi list,

 I downloaded the 2 isos of mdk 7.1beta3 from ftp.free.fr
 I got some problems : the install program failed to read
 my second CD. At first i thought of a burning error, but
 the second time the same bug did appear.
 So i took a further look at some files on the ext cd.
 For example xxgdb-1.12-15mdk.i586.rpm was not found to
 be a valid rpm archive by rpm. I downloaded the same file
 from an ftp archive, and it looked correct. The 2 files
 had exactly the same size, but when i edited the iso
 version with hexedit, i found that it was completelly filled
 with null bytes !
 I looked at many other files, and found the same problem, but not
 on all. The same behaviour occured also when i mounted the iso
 as loopback, so i think it is not a burning problem. I redownloaded
 the iso a second time, and the md5sum test was correct.

 Has anybody else met the same problem ?

[Cooker] Downloader X

2000-05-28 Thread Darin Peshev

hello,
I wish that Downloader X is included in Mandrake. This is downloader
similar to
JetCar, NetAnts and GetSmart. It monitors clipboard, splits downloads into
many pieces,
resumes interrupted transfer of course, supports proxies. As far as i know
there is no
better downloader for Linux. Its URL is http://www.krasu.ru/soft/chuchelo/

Best Regards,
