But it seems emerge is using the -c option to continue downloads that have been interrupted. I have noCurrently, emerge does not support simultaneous downloading and compiling (at least I
know nothing about such an option), in the future it could download the next package
while the current package is still compiling. For now, you can more or less emulate this
by starting an emerge -f (options) (packages) first, waiting for one or more downloads to
complete, and then starting another emerge (options) (packages) with the same arguments
except "-f" (without terminating the first emerge). Though this may cause trouble should the second
emerge ever catch up with the first... I'm not sure whether running 2 wget processes on
the same file is a good idea.
If the file to be downloaded exist, wget simply downloads the file as filename.1
idea what happens when two simultaneous wget -c's are run with the same output file...
Thx, will be doing it tonight when no one is using the desktop :)This list is really good for sure! I'm learning a lot from the posts here.
I really appreciate all the help this list is giving me.
