Hi, Troy
Thanks for your reply. I didn't use http cause it take long time and once
disconnected the downloading file will be lost. I will try using other
downloading soft like bt as Igor suggested.

Are you downloading with Windows using a FAT filesystem?
Does it support files over 4 Gbytes?
If _that_ is your problem, either change your computer or use the CD
images or add a USB drive and format it NTFS, then download directly to
that. an 8 Gbyte flash drive would be the minimum.

Hi,all!
I am new to linux, but I want to try it now. Cause I am studying in a
adademic institute, so I find S. L. . Hope to learn from you in the
future!
My question is, when I download S.L. 5.2 from
ftp://ftp.scientificlinux.org/linux/scientific/52/iso/ , I use
flashget, the project finished 99% but always fail at the last 1%, the
error message said there is error when writing to files. I tried
download to another partition but fail again. Does anybody knows why?
Thanks!
Carl
Hi Carl,
I've never used flashget, so I am not positive about my answer, but some
people have had their download problems fixed simply by using http
instead of ftp. So the first thing I would try would be to download
from
http://ftp.scientificlinux.org/linux/scientific/52/iso/
