I never download full isos anymore. Instead I download this: http://mirror.chpc.utah.edu/pub/fedora/linux/releases/8/Fedora/x86_64/os/images/boot.iso Then I do a http install, selecting a close mirror, like the UofU: http://mirror.chpc.utah.edu/pub/fedora/linux/releases/8/Fedora/x86_64/os/ a complete http install is actually almost as fast as a DVD install, believe it or not. > > I am trying to download the ISO (3.8 GB), but the mirrors I have tried > off the Internet > are painfully slow and if I could get access to a local link or > copy...trying to save some > hours here :) > > If anyone has a copy or has a sftp/http server here on campus that I > could connect to > download it I would appreciate it. > > I need to setup up a quad AMD Opteron server for a research group in our > department > and they extensively use Python.
