Use btdownloadcurses url - for the FC5 i386 CD ISOs for example: -
btdownloadcurses http://torrent.fedoraproject.org/tor...y-i386.torrent See man man bittorrent-downloader.bittorrent for more information. |
Sometimes there is also a bittorrent-gui package that needs to be installed if you want a GUI.
|
azureus works wonders as a gui bittorrent client. You should really check it out if you are interested in gui at all. I personally use bittornado since I am running it on my server that does not have X installed.

Download and install bittorent from:
http://www.bittorrent.com/download.myt When you have run the program, all you have to do is to find proper bittorent file. Download it and then open bittorrent file in bittorrent. That's all. |
