Gene, In this case a better alternative to torrent would probably be rsync, especially since you probably have 99.99% of the right bits. The Fedora downloads site doesn't support rsync, but lots of its mirrors do. rsync's command line options can be a bit imposing if you haven't used it before. From your Fedora-12-x86_64-Live directory, type and run the following command line (this is long and may wrap, but it's all one line including the trailing " ."). $ rsync -acvzP rsync://rsync.gtlib.gatech.edu/fedora-enchilada/linux/releases/12/Live/x86_64/Fedora-12-x86_64-Live.iso . This will do a block-by-block comparison of a known good source file at the Georgia Tech mirror against your local copy. It will replace any local blocks that don't match those on the mirror. It should only take rsync a very few minutes to repair your iso file.
