BitTorrent and RH9

gav on 2003-03-31T20:35:48

I thought BitTorrent would be a good way to snag the RH9 cds early. It started off well, a reasonable 30k down/30k up, but after 30 minutes it settled to 5k down/90k up. <Cancel>

It worked really well for me, but you already saw that. :-)

I decided to just leave it overnight and see what happened and it was all downloaded by the time I got in to work.

Now all I have to do is find some time to install it on my test box.

Actually, I didn't. I thought I had, but I think I just downloaded the palce holder files.
The download took another 5 hours.
