as you see a lot of space nedded, but this days a new and big hdd are so cheap, myself have a lot of free space ....

and do not forgot to help the others sabayoners, restraint yourself a little to jump and experiment the new revision, and keep your machine and your torent up and running in full seed state for a little. This is the first thing that any sabayoners can do to help spreading the good news. Seed as long as you can, remember you don't need to do to using you full speed upload & download bandwith, lower all of it to be 10-20 KiB less that you full speed bandwith and you can have a nice torrent experience and in the same time a good browsing + e-mail + chat experience!

As a ideea i think should be good if can seed the xdelta part also as a *.tar torrent ... what you think? can spread a little the upload effort to a lot more peers. The sum of file is not little at all, has 183 MiB also! How can do this in a official way?

[totedati]

forget about the fact that [url] and [code] bb code can not be both in the same place .... and can not edit or delete my previous post, so here is a first errata:

[code]
curl -O "http://mirror.internode.on.net/pub/sabayonlinux/xdelta/sl-x86-3.4a-to-3.4e-0.xdelta"
curl -O "http://mirror.internode.on.net/pub/sabayonlinux/xdelta/sl-x86-3.4a-to-3.4e-1.xdelta"
curl -O "http://mirror.internode.on.net/pub/sabayonlinux/xdelta/sl-x86-3.4a-to-3.4e-2.xdelta"
curl -O "http://mirror.internode.on.net/pub/sabayonlinux/SabayonLinux-x86-3.4e.iso.md5"
[/code]

not as it is in first post ! And from some other forum post look like xdelta v3.0 is too new you need xdelta v1.3. anybody can correct me if i am wrong, me have:

[code]
esearch xdelta
[ Results for search key : xdelta ]
[ Applications found : 1 ]

* dev-util/xdelta
Latest version available: 3.0-r1
Latest version installed: 1.1.3-r1
Size of downloaded files: 530 kB
Homepage: http://www.xdelta.org
Description: Computes changes between binary or text files and creates deltas

[/code]

still using sabayon v3.3 and i am to lazy to update my xdelta version and check if is working using xdelta v3.0 also .... anybody welcome to do this test ....

[totedati]

uff ... should be a way to edit this posts .... !!!

[totedati]

and to save for you a lot of headaches, do yourself a favor and use azureus, is the best bittorrent application and is crossplatform also, ready to serve the bits in windows and linux for all of us!

this can start a flamewar but that is, what is done is done, and see here too many complaints about bad torrent download speed performance. Can spark a flamewar but can not restrain myself ...

[wolfden]

You guys should be waiting for the Release Announcement

[totedati]

i will wait and in the mean time i will seed. look like i am the only one with a complete iso in torrent swarm:

availability = 1.224x

this means that is me and the other sabayoners, dyingmuppet, serving the bits ... but at lecheer part is already 40 in group and 10 lucky guys connected .. so ... i am here ... serving the bits ...

look like all is official now:
