I had to restart the download 5 times. I'm kicked off by my ISP at 8 hours of connect and I needed a little over 40 hours to download it. One of the first things I did after burning the iso onto a cd was to mount it, cd to it, and just do a simple du. That is a simple test of the filesystem. The coasters usually don't make it past mount and I've been able to use any that I can du. Kent > -- > Crist J.
