Fwd: Re: Strange rsync issue
Люди, помогите. :)
Может кто ни будь может помочь мне?
Мне нужно чтобы кто ни будь прислал бы
мне CD binary-i386-1_NONUS по простой почте
в Латвию, причём похоже что компенсировать издержки
я не смогу поскольку перевод денег из Латвии в
Россию стоит 20 $ 8-( ).
Мне для зеркала CD-image только его и не хватает.
А ещё лучше если отзовется кто ни будь у кого этот
исошник лежит в Латвии.

This is nonsense. It should be ~10 MB data read and >600 MB matched.
There's something very wrong here.

Don't know, but even if so, I suspect that's not all of the problem.

And have that "someone" pay for the traffic? ;-) Instead, you'd better get a
CD set from one of the many vendors, http://www.debian.org/distrib/vendors
("faster and cheaper" ;-)

The rsync temp file is called something like .binary-i386-1.12345 in the same
dir, but I think Windows won't allow you to read it while rsync is still
running. From a second DOS box, you could try to cd to that directory, and use
"cp .binary-i386-1.12345 rsync-tempfile" to get a readable copy of it. Or
perhaps forcing the rsync's DOS box close may result in rsync not deleting its
tempfile.

Haven't heard any real problem on any platform in a long time...
