Hi every body,
I looked for the sarge distro , on mirrors, the size of he CD's are not the same.
in ftp.debian.cz the 1st iso has only 373 Mb, but the 2nd with 1850 ???
on other site there are 10 cd ??
I want the basic three CD .
thank you
bela
You probably are seeing the "jigdo" files which are much smaller. Debian is trying to get people to use these files since they consume much less bandwidth than downloading the full ISO images.
BTW, Debian Woody takes 7 disks. It might be eiasier to purchase them rather than download them. <commercial>My company sells them if you are interested.... follow the link below</commercial>
