Martin Last week I set up a Linux partition and ran the Brisa script.
Twice I left it running overnight, but it failed both times after several hours during the fgdata clone. Eventually I just copied over all 15gb from my current windows fgdata directory and did a git pull on this. That seems to have solved the problem for me (although there may well be some Windows-Linux CRLF issues), but this would of course not be a posible solution for a new user. My Internet connection is ADSL2+ over copper, and the router reports the current data rate as 6583 kbps, which is all I can get out here in the middle of nowhere. Although not lightning fast, it is quite stable. The reason I quoted 10 Gb is that my fgdate/.git/objects directory is currently 8.9Gb, and I assumed that is what gets downloaded during a clone. I bow to your wisdom if you say that it is "only" 4.9Gb. The fact remains that I believe that the current fgdata is too large and is not fit for purpose. The need to re-organise it exists now, as it did last year. Perhaps you, or someone else, could comment on that.
