--Which ones do you recommend for Win? I use Opera for Win and Linux, and 'wget' is good for Linux even over proxy....

I use a download mgr when I download anything more than about 50meg or so... Plus the good ones will do multiple connections that will allow FASTER downloads.

Here's a list of freeware and adware download managers for windows. I suggest any of the one's with a 5 star rating.

Hi...

I am on 92% and I need to find a little quicker mirror....

Can anyone find a mirror other than those listed on the "download" page?

Thanks!

Salve mcguire303,

You mean to get Knoppix?
Ask your internet-provider to miror Knoppix

I can burn with speed=8 directly (with mkfifo trick) from official Knoppix-mirrors

Greetings

Your're right, to use mr.green was not nice-

- please for give
me. But I wanted to stress, that in general the mirror-servers are
fast, but not everybody in the world can access them fast.
To change this, I would be interesting where you are and
which internet-provider you use.
In case that for your region all official mirorrs are to
slow (how slow?) it make sence to search for a new mirror for
your region.
This will not help you know, but maby in some weeks and of course,
others.

So I hope that you got the missing 8% inbetween.
rob

PS: My CD-burner has falling down and is now not realy compatibel
with other readers any more ;( otherwise I would say mail my your
adress and I will send (snail-mail) you a 3.2 after beeing publiced
on the server.

I only have -40MB left and cannot find a server to connect to...

All of the good ones I have wont connect (booting me?)

I will attempt to look for other servers....

all I need is 7% of this thing and I am good!!!!!
