That would be nice to know. id like to have an archive of no longer supported releases. my calculations were ~250gb per release with the secondary archs. We are looking at having i386 x86_64 ppc ppc64 sparc sparc64 ia64 and alpha the biggest issue we face right now is where do we store everything? Seriously if anyone has contacts inside some big storage providers that could help us get storage donated it would be really appreciated. Dennsi
