Re: FTP Downloading



Hi:
If you have a cdrom writer, you can download ISO image from many anonymous
FTP servers. Otherwise, I recommend you to buy a Debian cdrom set. It is
possible to download the whole distribution directory structure to your hard
drive and install it, but I don't think it's worth all the troubles you will
go through.
I usually download ISO images from Linuxberg (www.linuxberg.com). It's not
the fastest but I find it pretty reliable. If you want to buy a cdrom set,
check your local computer store and if they don't have one, you can order
from online Linux vendors. I've never ordered from those websites so I can't
really tell you which one is good but you could try
Cheapbytes(www.cheapbytes.com) or Linux Mall(www.linuxmall.com). They both
have cheap cdroms that come without manuals.
