I've gotten a positive response from the Belnet ftp maintainer!

More good news: ibiblio is going to be a mirror in the near future as well, *and* I'm also adding the torrents to the new ibiblio torrents server. This means that in the very near future ibiblio will be seeding the torrents, hopefully speeding up downloads for everyone. Best, Lode

Great news indeed ! :) http://ftp.belnet.be/linux/opensuse/distribution/SL-10.0-OSS-beta4/

Great news, but still almost empty. Pascal, please tell the admin he may use rsync://ftp4.gwdg.de/pub/opensuse/distribution/SL-10.0-OSS-beta4/inst-source/ rsync://ftp4.gwdg.de/pub/opensuse/distribution/SL-10.0-OSS-beta4/inst-source-java and - different server - rsync://ftp.gwdg.de/pub/opensuse/distribution/SL-10.0-OSS-beta4/iso/ to speed up completion. ftp4 is almost idle (below 10 MByte/sec), and ftp has the i386 and x86_64 ISOs almost every time directly from buffercache.

Go to bed Eberhard ;) ... you deserve all the sleep you can get, mate.

Thanks for working so hard this week to keep the beta flowing nicely. Your effort is immense.

Xes, I am ripe for going to bed, but a) the belnet.be maintainer did not try to contact me (Roman, reading here?) b) ftp4 still is able to saturate every DSL line (I really wonder - where are the users tonight?) b) is a hint not (only) for the belnet.be maintainer, you (readers which are not yet complete) understand? ;->>

..... and have a great weekend!

Thanks. I guess I will, regardless of the weather. Just watching my machines, everything running well (but some things slow). ;-)) Cheers -e -- Eberhard Moenkeberg (emoenke@gwdg.de, em@kki.org)

Hi, I just sent ftpmaint at belnet.be a mail with these paths. Hopefully the Belnet mirror is ready by the time RC1 is released (this friday if I remember correctly?). Cheers, Lode
