Oops Actually I'm using it from my linux box, it is just much easier than
using jigdo command line, but the problem is the same, I'll try to do it as
Andrej suggest but  i think that i have already triede to do that. :-(

 Andrej,

 Thanks the info.  Yes, jigdo-easy is indeed for windows.  I am running
 potato and tried to install the jigdo deb and got a number of
 dependencies.
 When I tried to install a couple of the packages apt-get
 claimed that it
 didn't know about them; and I didn't want to make a hybrid
 installation - so
 I tried jigdo easy instead.

 If Woody is really only a few weeks away from release then I
 will probably
 just wait and order the CD(s).

 I don't know about jigdo-easy (I assume though, it's the Windows
 version since your header says you posted your message from Outlook)
 but I was successful with jigdo-lite under Linux.

 That was a permanent connection yet not very fast, plus I had to
 pause the download for, say, two weeks and then continue. If I
 remember correctly, I got a similar error: some files failed to
 download because the image got updated and they were simply
 excluded. The solution was to get the new index file and pretend to
 be downloading everything from scratch -- then at the beginning
 you're prompted to give the path of a possible older version of the
 same image to reuse common files. That's what I did, some files were
 missing and got downloaded at once -- I think it was ten, maybe
 twenty new packages. Really just a few megabytes. Everything else
 was there already.

 Good luck,
 andrej

That makes two of us with this problem...

Having DSL I used to be able to successfully download a 2/3 CD set in 5 or 6
hours .  Now, with all the improvements that jigdo brings I've cut that down
to 5/6 days for no success.

 That's certainly not the direction in which things are going. A few
 people have left loudly, that's true, but there's also lots of new
 blood, and plenty of experienced developers are sticking
 around for the
 long term.
