Your connections is _too_ slow to be a full mirror... But if you insist, it's about 9 CDs [from the unofficial iso images thing].. So about 6GB... At 100kbs it will take 5.8 days.. At 100kB/s it will take about 18h [first one is 100 kilo bits and the other one is 100 kilo bytes].... [like comparing T1 to ISDN]. If you want source, roughly double the time. - Adam
