Really Really impressed!
One click install - done in a few minutes.
I'd already started a Firefox download of the latest 586 NET boot ISO -
which had been trundling in at under 100 KB/s. Aborted this and started
Aria2c on the same URL and it picked up the half-downloaded file,
checked it and finished the job steaming in at almost 400 KB/s
I won't be using anything else now...
Many thanks again, from some who's rarely moved to such paeans

I recommend to use aria2c, which is the most powerful metalink client.
http://software.opensuse.org/search?q=aria2
It is a Factory package.
