Mirror or possibly faster download for speakup modified fredora core 3?

[Sina Bahram]

Hi all,

Hope everyone is well, and happy new year to you all.

I was wondering if there are any users on here who possibly have Speakup
Modified Fedora Core 3 on bit taurant or a faster mirror? I'm getting around
27.5kb/s from the site, and all I need are disks 3 and 4, as I downloaded
the previous two last night, along with the boot disk.

I was hoping to get this installation done by the afternoon, because we want
to start taking a look at accessible linux from a university point of view,
and I wanted to showoff speakup, as I've been happy with it at home, and
think it would work great in this environment.

If you all have any suggestions, I'd really appreciate it.

Take care,
Sina

To my knowledge there's nothing much better at the moment. This is
regretable, of course, and I have some thoughts for the future. But, as
far as I know, this is how things stand for now. Good luck.

If Linux can't solve your computing problem, you need a different problem.

Hi Janina,

Well, if you'd like to get a bittaurant thing up ... I wouldn't mind leaving
it on at times, and helping out with that.

Or what about that distributed download technology. It's kind of like
bittaurant, but static on the download end

I was reading about this methodology that is like: ok, you download this
part of the file ... And you download this part from another server, and
yeh, you download this part from yet another server. So it does
multithreaded downloads, but with different servers on each thread; however,
it could be configured to be greedy, and use 2 or 3 threads per server,
further recursively improving the download.

Take care,
Sina
