Brian, >I still think it's something on your end. All of these URLs work fine here:

Well, I don't know what the problem is then. One thing that I might notice is that all the files I downloaded gave the same MD5 sum, so that didn't look as a problem on my side. The really interesting question is why kernel.org mirror is working OK, while the others do not. Intermediate cache? Anyway, the problem is solved (I used the mirror you supplied) and it's working for the others - that's the most important thing. Thanks again! dt __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Tired of spam? Yahoo!
