Thanks a lot. It started downloading with no freeze so far, and -c made it append to the incomplete *.iso file already downloaded.
You're going to be disappointed in the result. The FTP client is going to assume that you have the first 363,593,728 bytes of the iso file. That assumption is very wrong. What you have is random chunks of the iso all packed together into a file. The FTP client will append the remainder of the iso, leaving you with an unusable result. All is not lost, though. You just need to get the first portion of the file again and append the remainder. Let your FTP download complete, then rename the resulting file: $ mv F-7-i386-DVD.iso rest.dat Now start the FTP download again. Wait until at least 363,593,728 bytes have been downloaded and then interrupt the download. Now you can use dd to put the good pieces together: $ dd if=rest.dat of=F-7-i386-DVD.iso bs=256k skip=1387 seek=1387 Now you've got a complete iso file that should pass the SHA1 check. Note: 363,593,728 = 256K x 1387. -- Bob Nichols "NOSPAM" is really part of my email address.
