Thanks, John
I am not sure about my file system, but I feel that is the problem, I will
check it soon. You are so great!

My computer
Choose boot disk (probably c:), right-click, properties
See the "filesystem" line.

If it's NTFS, the file's size isn't your problem.


Regards!
Carl

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 $B!* (B

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/
