Another download method for Linux I find simple and reliable is to do: wget -b http://speakup.modified.org/current/Fedora... keeps computer available for other things and a command like: wc -l wget-log will yield ascending numbers until the download finishes. Very easy way to check on progress. The other advantage to wget is it gets a good copy of the file or it doesn't get a file. That eliminates at least one of the sha1sum checks. For windows, sha1sum utilities exist that can take an sah1sum of a file. Those can be found out on versiontracker.com easily enough.
