For those who are interested in the latest release of Red Hat's "Roswell" (7.2 beta), I'm getting 450 KBps from mirror.pa.msu.edu.
Ya know, I could really get used to journalling filesystems (yes, I know SuSE has had Reiserfs for some time). Roswell comes with option to make ext3 partitions, so I did just that with the root partition on my first test install. After booting up, and logging in via gdm, I hit the reset button. On reboot the filesystem check took, oh, about 1 second.
Now I just hope that the second edition of Roswell will work on our Epox KM133 (embedded shared-memory Savage video chipset). The first edition consistently locked up as soon as the X server was started.
Now it's time to investigate some of the 3 gigs of stuff Roswell installed on Mom's computer.
