Red Hat 8.0

[Christopher Wagner]

I'm downloading disc 1 and 2 currently, but things are going slowly..  You
mention disc 5 below, does that mean you're starting with disc 5 first?  If
so, I'll start uploading disc 1 and 2 somewhere if you'd like as soon as
they complete..

Actually, http://mirror.nblug.org/redhat/8.0/en/iso/i386/ has a slowly
growing file named ".in.psyche-i386-disc5.iso"; currently 23M.

rsync rsync://mirror.nblug.org/mirror/redhat/8.0/en/iso/i386/ will even show
you the file; with a "--partial" and a "--block-size=8192" you can start
your download early...  Just rename your local file once the file on our
mirror gets renamed and start again...

Oooh...  just hit 24M...  going fast.  ;)

(it's trying; it's gonna take a while.  If anybody's got ISOs please tell me
where and I can try to get things jumpstarted a bit early...)
