2009-02-12 Thread John Watlington

Currently only through ssh.
I assume you mean an rsync daemon, serving up the xs images ?
I think that could be arranged...

I was trying to rsync ISOs last night (updating an older release) but
it didn't work...might help those who have limited bandwidth.

You can rsync over SSH, and you can use --partial to ensure that the
data you have got so far is not wasted for when you have to restart.

Bare rsync is merely slightly more efficient, since the data is not
encrypted and encapsulated by the SSH connection.
