Use HTTP (it doesn't keep it connected, but you don't get the login overhead, so it's the same effect) > What will define "official" images? Official images are ones whos md5sum's match those in the MD5SUMS files that I've signed. > Phillip, too many Ls, but never mind ;-) > any chance we'll see "official" images on the cdimage rsync server? You mean .iso's? On current evidence, I don't think it would be productive, because it would clog up cdimage.d.o to a point that the people that are currently successfully using jigdo, might not be able to grab snapshot files they might need, without really improving things. There are a few mirrors offering .iso files, so if you need them, they are out there. If you tell me that those mirrors are too busy to be usable, then you'll be making my point for me. :-) > I've been trying for a few days now and still don't have one image > created. And your problem is what exactly? You don't seem to have mentioned it above.
