ATM its moot, I *think* I have a cd install going, without any of
the i18n stuffs though.

I note that a friend of mine is the owner etc of some of those,
which is a puzzle because he doesn't have an account on
this machine, nor can I give him one in view of my firewalling
from the outside.  So I have a certified case of NDI how they
got that owner:group attached.  They were downloaded by me, as
root, using gftp since it can just keep hammering a slow site
till it gets it all.  And most of redhats machines can be considered
as somewhere between slow and really slow, often dropping well
below 3k a second on a 90k a second dsl connection here, or just
plain stopping, after 45 seconds of which gftp disconnects & retrys.

That makes trying to grab an iso pretty frustrating at times.  I'm
only a state away, so to use the closest mirror means either duke or
redhat themselves.  Theres one in Pittsburgh, but its connections
are usually all used up.  I think its limit is 15 or some such. :(
