Many of the ftp sites don't offer the iso files for Slackware anymore. If you're getting them over a cable or DSL (or faster) connection then bittorrent is definitely the way to go. However, if you do use bittorrent, please try to leave it running for a while after you finish your download so that some others can get the files from you and so that a large burden is not placed on a few individuals. If, on the other hand, you are on a modem, you might consider an alternative means of getting the files. I have them on CD and would be happy to mail them to you. Or, you could purchase them from www.slackware.com. At 12:33 AM 11/16/03, Jes and guide dog Harley wrote: >Jacob, I went to the ftp site you gave me and looked in the slackware 9.1 >directory.
