Hi,
Nowadays, it is very common to have a disk ranging from 6.4GB to 10.1GB.
It is also common lots people will install both windoze and linux on the same
disk. I am just about to install debian on three computers for my friends. They

this an easy fix and it's just over my Linux-semi-newbie head? :)
I used to be able to continue an interrupted ftp upload in ncftp just
by typing "put -C filename". It would continue the upload where it
left off. But since upgrading to slink, ncftp no longer seems to have
this option. Does anyone know what happened to it?
