Re: opensuse site download for 10.1

hello,

2 days ago I started this download
http://download.opensuse.org/distribution/SL-10.1/non-oss-dvd-iso/SUSE-Linux-10.1-Remastered-DVD-x86_64.iso

I'm using flashget on WinXP. The site seems to be having trouble or is
overloaded -- my speed is averaging about 30 kB/s. Something is wrong on
their end since I have a 10 MB/s connection.

I'm thinking of switching to torrent to finish the download. Will I be able
to use the 50% of the ISO that I have to
start with the torrent, or do I have to start over?

AFAIK this is the only location for the 10.1 ISO's -- there are no mirror
sites. If you know of one, help!

tia,
Mark



I downloaded the i386 dvd from ftp.utah.edu in about 1 hour 45 minutes.
