Ah thanks. That was what I read. I thought I will build an 8 Gig HD in my Router and copy all packages I have here on my isos to rsync it up to cooker. Then I will give half of my bandwith for syncing to cooker while surfing and see if I can catch up with cooker. :) A sat feed on astra to sync cooker would be good ;) -- _________________________ counter.li.org : #296567. machine: 181800 vdr-box : 87 _________________________
