The desire to download .iso images is because that is what the installation instructions are written for. It's been quite a while since I last did a Linux install, and I like having the crutch of written instructions.
You did, however, tweak my memory, and I think that I used wget for my last install. Thanks for the pointer, I will look into it. -----Original Message----- From: Linux on 390 Port [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Post, Mark K Sent: January 19, 2006 15:55 To: [email protected] Subject: Re: Centos ISOs I would imagine that it isn't the mirrors making a decision to only offer bittorrents, but the CentOS project itself. I doubt anyone has .iso files for the mainframe. Personally, I still don't understand the desire to download .iso images. You still have turn play games to make an installable directory structure. Just use wget to download the individual files to start with.

All the mirrors appear to have bittorrent files, and installing bittorrent at work could get me into some trouble. Home is on a 56K dial-up, so that's not really an option either. And no, I don't have a budget to buy anything. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For LINUX-390 subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the message: INFO LINUX-390 or visit http://www.marist.edu/htbin/wlvindex?LINUX-390 The information transmitted is intended only for the person or entity to which it is addressed and may contain confidential and/or privileged material.
