OK, take what information you have, including the ftp log extract, and
file a bug report. Be sure to state very clearly that the system is
hung, and you cannot get to a console.

Yes, download.opensuse.org automatically redirects you to some other
"suitable" server.. the definition of "suitable" being wholly unclear to

servers in Germany and Hungary to me, though I think that locations
across the Atlantic are not necessarily "close" :-) ).
