[opensuse] NonOSS CD via BitTorrent at the Limit of Slowness (Stopped, Mostly)
Hi, Doesn't anyone download the NonOSS CD? The only download option presented on [1] is the torrent file, [2] (with which I'm fine), but in the time it took me to get over 1 GB of the main 32-bit installer DVD I've gotten less than 1.8 MB of the NonOSS CD image. Virtually all the time the inbound rate on this file is zero. The share ratio is 1.7 (and climbing), even though my outbound link is six times slower than my inbound link! Is this a sign of some problem, or are there just very few others retrieving this image? Is there a direct (non-BitTorrent) download available for this image?

I don't. I get all the non-oss packages directly from the Internet repo, so I see little reason. Greg -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org

I don't either. I downloaded the x86_64 DVD on "Day 1". I do fresh install then I manually add the following repositories and work from there: http://ftp.skynet.be/pub/packman/suse/factory/ http://download.videolan.org/pub/videolan/vlc/SuSE/11.3/ http://dl.google.com/linux/rpm/stable/x86_64 http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/Java:/packages/openSUSE_11.3/ http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/X11:/lxde/openSUSE_11.3/ Regards James -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org

I little while ago the download rate on that torrent suddenly shot up and it has now completed downloading. Both the 32-bit installer DVD and the NonOSS CD images are now seeding. As usual, I'll leave my BitTorrent client (Vuze) running until both of them have a share ratio significantly above one.
