Ehrm, as everyone else seem to post their favourite European mirrors: ftp.se.debian.org Is quite fast for me (I might be somewhat biased, as I'm part of the group administering that machine and that the machine stands approx. 1 block from my apartment) and is connected to the Swedish backbone-net. If you have problem with the speed from it, well tough luck, it's your connection, not the machine, I can assure you. /David Weinehall _ _ // David Weinehall <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> /> Northern lights wander \\ // Project MCA Linux hacker // Dance across the winter sky // \> http://www.acc.umu.se/~tao/ </ Full colour fire </
