Reading between the lines, it appears that rsync access to
the URL above is not available. However, Chris Lawrence

I used
|rsync -Pvvv rsync://www.phy.olemiss.edu/debian-cd/woody-i386-1.raw .
to get it. Although I didn't get the reduced download
advantage of rsync (I had woody.isolinux.iso before) it came
down much faster from this URL than from people.debian
(60kB/s vs 2kB/s) and I'll be able to take advantage of
rsync next time:)
If anyone's interested, I renamed the .raw to .iso and burnt
to a CDRW at 4x using EDCD. It worked beautifully. Rebooted
and can report that it seems to have worked well:)
Thanks to those who took the time to read and/or respond.
