Hello
Twice tonight I tried to download the F9 ISO. First the DVD, then the live
CD. In both cases the download manager hung up at the very end. I had no
option but to cancel the download. The DVD download wasted 5 hours and the
CD download wasted another hour. I'm already using F9 on an AMD X2. I
downloaded F9 ISO when my system was running F8. I upgraded to F9 and then
gave away my DVD/CD. Now I wanted to get new copies for myself. I do my
downloads with Seamonkey. It seems like the last chunk of the ISO just can't
be delivered. I guess I'll have to use bittorrent or perhaps command-line
ftp. I wonder if Seamonkey's download manager is broken?
John
If a torrent is too slow for you or a firewall is in the way try using
wget from the command line. "wget -c full-url-path-to-file" will
resume downloads.
Hi Kam,
I knew about wget, but didn't realize it would resume after a
disconnect. I'll try it.
Thanks.
John
