That's why you should use wget if you're going to get it via http ;-) (the '-c' option is 'continue') In somewhat related news, but on the bittorrent side, just for fun I set the max_upload_rate to 0 (which, in classic computer scienceunrestricted) after I got the x86_64 image and seeded to see how much actual upload bandwidth Verizon gives me. It's been doing a pretty steady 200-220KB/s (about 1.5Mb/s). It doesn't take long to get into the GB range of uploaded bytes at that rate... I need to go back and figure out how much traffic-in-a-month they consider 'abusive' so I know when to shut it down... Matt
