Andrej, Thanks the info. Yes, jigdo-easy is indeed for windows. I am running potato and tried to install the jigdo deb and got a number of dependencies. When I tried to install a couple of the packages apt-get claimed that it didn't know about them; and I didn't want to make a hybrid installation - so I tried jigdo easy instead.
If Woody is really only a few weeks away from release then I will probably just wait and order the CD(s). -rick -----Original Message----- From: andrej hocevar [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, June 05, 2002 9:47 AM To: debian-user@lists.debian.org Subject: Re: jigdo-easy /woody On Wed, Jun 05, 2002 at 01:12:34PM +0200, jfcarvajal wrote: > > I have a problem when trying to download a woody iso image with jigdo-easy. > It always says "oops! some file missed.

I don't know about jigdo-easy (I assume though, it's the Windows version since your header says you posted your message from Outlook) but I was successful with jigdo-lite under Linux. That was a permanent connection yet not very fast, plus I had to pause the download for, say, two weeks and then continue. If I remember correctly, I got a similar error: some files failed to download because the image got updated and they were simply excluded. The solution was to get the new index file and pretend to be downloading everything from scratch -- then at the beginning you're prompted to give the path of a possible older version of the same image to reuse common files. That's what I did, some files were missing and got downloaded at once -- I think it was ten, maybe twenty new packages. Really just a few megabytes. Everything else was there already.
