https://bouncer.gentoo/org/fetch/root/all/releases/amd64/autobuilds/current-stage3-amd64/ What I did with speakup was to try moving with the tab key onto the first stage3 link andthat didn't work. So I tried with the arrow keys and that didn't work either. Speakup said it had worked, but speakup lied. How I know is the stage3 file ends in .tar.xz and the only thing links was willing to download was an image file from that location. So next I left braille terminal alone since I had enabled that before going into the site and it didn't do anything for me. Finally, I numbered links in the links configuration settings under html options then saved those html options two separate menu entries then I keyed in the correct number for the stage3 file to download and that was the only way links would get the job done. What's worse, I got no notification that the download was complete from links. The other way that's possible is with a bash script where site and download are two variables defined and using wget with the -bc options since that way you can know when your download is complete. You use grep to search wget-log for the word saved and that line will let you know your file download is complete. No comment on validity of the download, that's a matter for sha512sum.
