for what it's worth, i've written up my experience with jigdo: http://www.dirac.org/linux/debian/jigdo/
note that i haven't been successful -- at least, i don't think so. it creates an ISO image which i can burn, but during the download process, i got some messages like: --11:11:00-- ftp://ftp.fsn.hu/pub/debian-superseded/_uPSKNHm3q3gFry50rhCkw => `_uPSKNHm3q3gFry50rhCkw' Resolving ftp.fsn.hu... done.

No such file `_uPSKNHm3q3gFry50rhCkw'. (repeat a bunch of times) ----------------------------------------------------------------- Aaargh - not all files could be downloaded. This should not happen! Depending on the problem, it may help to restart the download. Also, you could try changing to another Debian or Non-US server, in case the one you used was not updated recently. However, if all the files downloaded without errors and you still get this message, it means that the files changed on the server. For the moment, in the case of Debian CD images the only solution when that happens is to revert to rsync. Press Return to restart. it looks like jigdo is interpreting md5sums as filenames. the woody-i386-2.raw.tmp file is 659141240 bytes large, so something must have downloaded correctly. the /tmp directory got deleted, and i take this to mean the download ended in some normal, sane sense. wahhh. i really want this to work! :-( pete -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
