Now I have experienced something odd. I am downloading F7 using
bittorrent. (It has been predicting about 16-18 hours of download time
which I guess is acceptable) I have in another thread discussed my
screen freeze problem, which now may or may not be expanding.
The PC usually freezes after some time of downloading, - well, it
freezes anyway after some time has elapsed - so it may not necessarily
be caused by the downloading as such.
But when I am about to pick up the downloading again, bittorrent-curses
starts out by checking the cintents of the .iso file which has been
downloaded so far. After a very short while the whole thing stops, and
reboot is the only option. This has happened 3 times in a row.
Does anyone have suggestions here? It may be the "old" problem of
course, but could this be some disk problem as well?
works best from level 3 but it will work in a terminal
cd /where_you_want_the_iso_to_ go
- all on one line- (this might line wrap)
wget -c
ftp://mirrors.usc.edu/pub/linux/distributions/fedora/linux/releases/7/Fedora/i386/iso/F-7-i386-DVD.iso
the -c will permit restarts if your machine crashes of you are disconnected.
Teh wget part is already completed, I am now running the
bittorent_curses part.
