Is there any workaround to this problem? Is this something to do with security or something like that? I tried first image but it was disconnected at about 135 MB and later file transfer started from begining. I live in Pakistan and there are frequent disconnections. So downloading such huge files is a very big ask. I have to download FreeBSD from web as there is no other feasible way. Regards, Ahmed --------------------------------- Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo!
