bit torrents are kinda like P2P... but not.... ish...
thats how i would explain it,... it just doesnt put much stress on the servers because it also gathers data from other people... and stuff like that... (man, if you havent knoticed, me explaining stuff went out the door)...
How you download it is immaterial. I downloaded my 3.8 by Bit Torrent. Just download, burn and go. The only problem with torrents is that if there are not a lot of people seeding it could take quite awhile to get it all. I'm on cable and I recall in the past when Knoppix was available as HTTP or FTP it was a half hour download. Since 3.8 was available only on torrent when I got it it took about seven hours
--Bittorrent downloads things slightly differently (built-in equivalent to automatic MD5sum checking) but the end result is the same. Burn the ISO only after BT tells you it's done downloading 100%, and you've stopped BT from uploading.
--Here's what I use (don't forget to chmod +x it)
BEGIN /usr/local/bin/btor
