Which torrent?

[bobbocanfly]

Torrents. Easier than messing about with mirrors and probably faster.

Which Torrent?

[Papi-KB7VGW]

I tried Walla Walla but they wouldn't let me in so I'm getting it from OSU at the unbelievable slow speed of 26KB/sec, I should be done by the time Hoary comes out:)

[x0as]

Which torrent?

ubuntu-7.10-alternate-i386

[bobbocanfly]

Please only post in this thread...

The other thread is a mistaken duplicate I have asked the staff to delete it.

Canonical should seriously consider a better in-OS upgrading mechanism involving Bittorrent. Anything other than downloading from the same hammered servers as everyone else. Or at least, you know, offer the choice.

Unless I can already do that and just don't know :)

It's called upgrading before the final release.

Thats what I did but upgrading does little good if you want to distribute free Kubuntu DVD/cd's.

You can't hand a upgrade out very easy, but DVD/CD's are great for this purpose. ;)

I'm pretty sure most users don't have a clue how to do that. Nor should they. :)

Ubuntu desktop from LinuxTracker
Ubuntu alternate using the torrent I picked up from one of the official UK mirrors (datahop)

Torrent client used: Azureus 3.0.3.0

I downloaded ubuntu-7.10-desktop-i386 from the link here on the Ubuntu pages. Not certain what tracker it's using though (it's running (seeding) at home, and I'm at work...)

Anyway, I use Utorrent on my Vista box, but when I was running torrents on Linux, I still used it, under wine. It's simply the best client I've found.
