Is it the disks or is it a left over from a bad .asc file that Warly planted on us by accident the first night we started running bit torrent to ease the mirror log-jam? If it's the disks just run rsync as you say. If it's the .asc file try one from a different mirror. They should all have caught up by now but..... I posted a link (yesterday? the day before? last week? too often? ;->) to Greg Meyer's page that will teach you how, plus I and others have posted examples recently. It ain't a hard thing to do Gary. :-) Here's another example, just "fill in the blanks," be sure you have write permissions in that directory or that you run it as super user, then hit enter. eg..: rsync -Pv --stats --progress ftp.sunet.se::Mandrake-iso/i586/MandrakeLinux-9.2rc2-CD#.i586.iso /targetdirectory/diskname and number Hint: after you enter the information to the point that you're "in the target directory" in the command above, just hit the "Tab" button to use auto-complete. Saves wear and tear on keyboards.
