Bruno Posted December 31, 2003 Share Posted December 31, 2003 Great Quint ! the 5.2 . . . . . . and you are right on all the other mirrors they show the checksum but not yet the ISO´s . . . . I´m waiting for my "nluug" to have them, don´t like the slow download the other site is giving me Bruno Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

linuxdude32 Posted January 1, 2004 Share Posted January 1, 2004 Thanks, Quint. Amazing how they keep adding more features to it. My download speed has bounced between 50 KB/s and 130 kb/s, once even went as low as 20 KB/s, but at least it's a small file (for an ISO, that is ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

linuxdude32 Posted January 2, 2004 Share Posted January 2, 2004 LOL . . it only took me 4 hours to get the file . . . . .There must be a picture of you beside persistence in the dictionary, Bruno! Here's something neat to try for your next ISO. I found out the md5sum file format so you can take a line like,9c49be756e58f600a4e7859b47ba6f42 damnsmall-0.5.2.isoand make it into a md5sum check file. The trick is that there has to be two spaces between the sum and the filename instead of only one above so it ends up looking like this:9c49b9c49be756e58f600a4e7859b47ba6f42 damnsmall-0.5.2.isoPaste it into an editor, and save it as a new filename, I suggest just putting the distro name followed by .md5sum but it doesn't matter. Then, like Bruno, has in his tips, you can have the computer compare it with the iso instead of you:md5sum -c damnsmall-0.5.2.md5sum Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bruno Posted January 2, 2004 Share Posted January 2, 2004 Thanks Jason! I will add that part to the Tip: Md5sum Trick Bruno Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
linuxdude32 Posted January 2, 2004 Share Posted January 2, 2004 My pleasure, Bruno. I'm lazy enough that I'm always trying to look for a shortcut (that probably takes more work to find in the first place). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jodef Posted January 5, 2004 Share Posted January 5, 2004 LOL . . it only took me 4 hours to get the file . . . . . BrunoWell it took me the same time to get the file on dial up but of course a few days later than you guys. Anyway works great even has built in support for dialup wvdial couldn't get it configured yesterday will try again today.One question though noticed mnt.app and on right hand side of screen that I can scroll through for different partitions.How do I access partitions see them there but can't figure out how to access data on them?

Bruno Posted January 5, 2004 Share Posted January 5, 2004 Hi JodefYou first use mount-app to mount the partition ( the little led has to be green as it is mounted ) Then you open a terminal ( Menu --> XShells --> Rxvt ) and simply cd to /mnt/hda?
