I'm a bit late in answering, but I had the same problem (it took me NINE
days and 4 restarts to download the entire RH 7.2 distro!!! - and that's
using a high speed cable modem!).  I used a product called WS_FTP and each
time a download would fail I would have it restart the ENTIRE download.  It
is smart enough to say "you already have that exact file" and move on to the
next, so I didn't have to constantly figure out which files I had retrieved
and which ones I had not.

Does anybody have a "step by step" installation guide for Installing RH 7.2
using this ftp download?  I still have to get the IBM OCO objects before I
can use this, right?

Subject: rhsetup ftp restart (RH7.2)


Is there a way to restart rhsetup? I can get the ftp to run but it runs
sooo long (2.5 days). I have the files on /dev/dasda1 but I need to
restart rhsetup to the point AFTER the ftp install and get prompted for
the pertinent information following. I do not want to have to go thru
the agonizing ftp process. 

Regards, j-me
