RedHat on the way

* List: alug(a)stu.uea.ac.uk Hello guys, OK, I just made enquires with my collegues upstairs (I work for the uni computing service so I had to be careful what I d/l) and it seems that unofficial policy on downloading large files from anywhere is 'bugger the cost'. Therefore, RH6.0 iso is currently standing at some 37Mb so far in just under ten minutes. With a bit of luck I can get this HP DirectCD to create a working CD, and Debian and Caldera offerings will conclude the Great Download of April. I strongly advise however to bring along you own distribution CDs - assume (as this is the first time I've mastered any CD) that my lot will fail. I'm looking to try out latest RH, Debian and Caldera shortly. Right, I'll do my Java assignment while I wait...

That's a good question. I can easily get the directory tree, but the filenames, permissions and symlinks would be smashed. Where are the .iso images???
