Sounds graphical, which would not make Jigdo easier (at least for me). > What problems did you have using jigdo-lite? - I had to find out what Jigdo was - I had to install Jigdo - I had to find out how to run Jigdo - I had to find a mirror for Jigdo files - I had to figure out a workaround for it trying to access http://jigdotemplates/something.template - I had to find a template file and download it and hope it worked - I had to wonder if it was working - I had to realise that when it was building the ISO file Jigdo was not really thinking it was finished - I had to figure out what to do when it couldn't download some files - I had to learn that switching mirrors should make it continue - I had to tell it to switch mirrors - I had to figure out what to do *then* when it couldn't download some files - I had to find an Rsync mirror - I had to find the file on the Rsync mirror using Rsync (I missed a directory) - I had to run Rsync - I had to get the md5sums - I had to verify the MD5 sum. All in all, I'd say it was five times more difficult than downloading an image with Wget. -- TomG My contact and cryptography information: http://web.em.ca/~tomg/contact.html
