Linux is not just wonderful; it's downright amazing. On this machine (my #2) it let me get into the gleanings folder, while #1 was (is!) still downloading, and delete stuff! (Fwiw, having succeeded with ssh into #1, I did the scp back into #2 from there -- if that matters.) What's more, I can delete stuff (particularly whole ISOs) faster than the other machine can pour them in. This is looking propitious, and then some. I may yet get F8 back onto that machine -- *with* the files I don't want to lose ... -- Beartooth Staffwright, PhD, Neo-Redneck Linux Convert Fedora 8 & 9; Alpine 1.10, Pan 0.132; Privoxy 3.0.6; Dillo 0.8.6, Galeon 2.0.3, Epiphany 2.20, Opera 9.27, Firefox 2.0 Remember I know precious little of what I am talking about. -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list
