Rsync runs are best scripted because you use them so often.

Make a new file 'touch <filename>

Edit it to include this.  Make changes as appropriate for you eg the last
line is your destination directory.

#!/bin/bash
echo
echo hdc11 must be mounted to /mnt/local/cdrimage  !!
echo for do-nothing test run, call with n parameter
echo
echo rsync -vrlt$1 --rsh ssh --delete --partial --progress
echo
rsync -vrlt$1 --rsh ssh --delete --partial --progress \
rsync://rufus.w3.org/linux/Mandrake/7.0/ \
/mnt/local/cdrimage/oxygen/

Make it executable 'chmod ug+x <filename>'

Connect to the internet.

./<filename> n

To assess what would be done, and 

./<filename>

to do it.

When done, repeat until nothing new appears.

^C will interrupt at any time .

To resume without loss, issue another ./<filename>
