Hi, while running the prepare script i encountered the following problem:
--11:59:32-- ftp://ftp.download.com/pub/win95/utilities/spybotsd13.exe => `packages/spybotsd13.exe.tmp' Resolving ftp.download.com... 206.16.4.28, 206.16.4.29, 206.16.4.30, ... Connecting to ftp.download.com[206.16.4.28]:21... connected. Logging in as anonymous ... Logged in! ==> SYST ... done. ==> PWD ... done. ==> TYPE I ... done. ==> CWD /pub/win95/utilities ... done. ==> PASV ... done. ==> RETR spybotsd13.exe ... No such file `spybotsd13.exe'. But that's not the main reason why I am writing this email. I was always kind of annoyed when the download of a service pack or something similar big failed and i had to start all over again because the prepare script isnt set to resume previous incomplete downloads. So I changed the prepare script a bit and added the "-c" switch as well as a "-t 3" switch because 20 tries to reach a host is a little too much, isn't it? ;) But then I remembered that resumed downloads might get corrupted and so I added a feature to check the md5 checksums of the downloaded files against md5 checksums added to the .bat files from the /scripts folder. I remember reading such a request before but don't remember if anyone opposed this idea or not. I know it is a lot of work to add all md5 checksums to the .bat files but I'll glad to help with the checksums for the "GER" and "ALL" files. :) I'm hosting a patch file (prepare.patch), a complete version of the new prepare script (preparenew) and an example .bat file (7-zip.bat) [so that you can see how it will look like with the md5 checksums] at http://iserv.bs.ni.schule.de/~jens.geile/ That's it for now.
