Yay *just finished downloading and burning FC2*

[yarjar]

Total time: 2 hours, 10 minutes.

I'm gonna wait until tomorrow to install it though. Also, in case you're curious, I used this mirror:

ftp://mirror.newnanutilities.org/pub/fedora/linux/core/

It's pretty fast; I got download speeds of 340 - 370 kb/s.

[jcstille]

Thats pretty decent speed. I have enjoyed FC2 (although haven't had it long) Enjoy it.

[linuxzouk]

i envy your 340 - 370 kb /s

mine is moving like a tortoise 9 - 11 kb/s

now only starting the 3rd iso, 1 iso per day :(

[jcstille]

Wow, mine was 1 1/2 hours per iso (for the first 3) don't know how long the 4th took.

[linuxzouk]

yours is 1 1/2 hours per iso

mine here 1 1/2 day per iso

gosh :(

[jcstille]

And the rescue cd was 3 minutes.

[Ug]

I've only just gotten it.

[linuxzouk]

btw, what's the rescue cd for? isn't rescue mode available in cd 1

6 more hours before i finish my 3rd iso 15kb/s :(

[Ug]

The rescue CD is just an emergency boot disk to help you recover your system.

I'm in FC2 now - i can't believe the speed increase from the 2.6 kernel!

[jcstille]

I am just now reinstalling it. Kinda messed it up the first time. I am getting ready to turn this machine into a server.

I'm posting from FC2 now - it's great! I love the new GNOME, except the new style for Nautilus, yuck. I'm also using Epiphany, always wanted to try it, it's pretty good.

[jcstille]

We always like to hear success stories.

[linuxzouk]

yay! finally finish downloading fc2 :)

[CheeseWarfare]

I downloaded all the iso's at once on Wednesday on a bittorrent and it only took 2 or so hours.

[Prometheus]

Is it easier to upgrade just by downloading the iso's again or using yum? I havent upgraded yet, thats why im wondering. Iso's would be good back up, but whats the best (in other words less painful) way?
