Thanks for the torrent. I appreciate it.

I download a lot from Fedora's mirrors and like to give back some when I can.

P.S. People that grab copies from various mirrors or torrents tonight and
that can spare bandwidth tomorrow can join the appropiate torrents.
Just put the iso(s) and SHA1SUM files in a directory and tell your bittorrent
client to publish to that directory. There is a short delay while the
file hashes are checked and after that you are republishing the files.
If there is a full iso and a rescue iso you will want to have both of them
or else you will starting downloading the missing one.
Bruno,

I would like to get a iso-info dump from the iso you have already downloaded. I'm working on a utility {to construct an iso from already downloaded fragments = development repo}. The command to use: {you do have to have libcdio rpm installed so that the iso-info command is available:}

$ iso-info -q -l -i /path/to/my/downloaded/F-7-i386-DVD.iso | bzip2 -c >F-7-i386-DVD.iso.iso-info.txt.bz2

and :
$ isoinfo -lR -i /path/to/my/downloaded/F-7-i386-DVD.iso | bzip2 -c >F-7-i386-DVD.iso.isoinfo.txt.bz2

The files once zipped are only about 30 kB each.
Also, the same for the rescue iso {if you you have it- change the names}.
