Thanks for your suggestions. Using rsync would require a rsync daemon on the other side ?

Re: Torrent for SL7
I suggest you use wget --continue. If for some reason it fails in one-shot, then when you run it again, it will continue from where it left off. That should work with most http servers. For me, I find direct download is typically faster than torrents, assuming the server has a good connection and rtt latency is lower than most torrent peers. - Original Message - > From: bac...@landtrekker.com > To: scientific-linux-users@fnal.gov > Sent: Wednesday, November 19, 2014 3:33:36 AM > Subject: Torrent for SL7 > > Hello, > > Is there any plan to release SL7 as a torrent download ? > > My ADSL link is too weak to sustain a one-shot DVD download. > > Thanks >
Torrent for SL7
Hello, Is there any plan to release SL7 as a torrent download ? My ADSL link is too weak to sustain a one-shot DVD download. Thanks
