Martin I might have unfairly judged all ISO's by my experience... I certainly understand the the problems with radio links ...we had a 2.3Ghz link across Wellington harbour to Petone was finally abandoned because of re-occurring multipath errors and container crane attenuation if I've judged the site unfairly I apologise.. regards Dene From: Martin Spott [EMAIL PROTECTED] Reply-To: flightgear-devel@lists.sourceforge.net To: flightgear-devel@lists.sourceforge.net Subject: Re: [Flightgear-devel] FGLive-0.1 Feedback Date: Tue, 23 May 2006 09:12:58 + (UTC) dene maxwell wrote: - Don't even try downloading the ISO using FTP!

Hi all, Experience to date; - Don't even try downloading the ISO using FTP! If you need to punish yourself, book in for root canal work, it's less painful. If you want to make it easy, download and install the BitTorrent Client. - FGLive won't run on a P1/166Mhz, 96MB Ram with S3 Trio64V+ video card... Loading GRUB ...error 21 - If you're gonna cut the ISO on Win ME...use a CD-RW you'll most probably end up cutting it more than once and it gets expensive using CD-R's Cutting 4th iteration now, with no virus software or soft firewall... more when I have it Cheers :-D ene _ Express yourself instantly with MSN Messenger!
