Hiya gang,
Looks like with the k_athlon kernel update, it's 54MB. On dialup, I might be able to get it all between the time I went to sleep and when I wake up. As for the kernel source, at 180MB +/-, there's just no way I can do it. If someone's willing, I think I can wrestle up a little cash to send for a CD-R with both updates on it. I don't have a checking account nor any kind of credit card, so I can't do the paypal thing, but my word is worth better than gold. When I give it, I keep it, no matter what the consequences. I know it's unorthadox, but it's literally the *only* way I can get this update. If someone's actually interested, email me, and we can work out whatever needs to be worked out. Thanks.
I don't mind doing this, if you're in the UK. CDRs are cheap. ;-) I take paypal, too if anyone else in the UK with dial-up wants a disk with the updates on. Email off-list with your requirements.
Regards,
Jason
Oops. I tend to forget that this letter is filled with good folk from all over the world! Heh. I don't know how much it'd cost to send anywhere overseas (especially when it'd be safe to have the CD in something that won'rt break easily...we all know how the mail is). If you could get a rough estimate on how much it'd cost, I'd sure appreciate it. I'm here in the U.S., in Tennessee (just a dumb country boy). Let me give the download a try, since someone else said they did and it only took them about 35 minutes (maybe all it downloads is certain 'parts' or the kernel stuff?).

They won't need fresh food for 3 months now. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.2.2 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQE+8d0qH5oDXyLKXKQRAhWgAJ9yyHJ0ZTvqSsftE3KFcYXXZ9HfmgCgulOU mnJDEnwbAa+DntOhBL4HC74= =pqdU -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
