Puppy 2.15CE Office Edition: Mirrors Required Subject description: Too big in Alpha for Lobster to handle? |
|
Hi gang,
I have uploaded the Alpha of Puppy 2.15CE Office Edition. It is a massive 406Mb, including 106Mb for Open Office squash file. Of course it will be cut back (severely) in future releases, but for now we need a place to host it for those who want to review and revise.
Any takers?
Cheers

I can for a while... I expect the server to exceed the bandwidth today as it did with the other Alpha.

Thanks, mate. Much appreciated.
Now what we need is to find ways of wielding the axe over this monster!
Cheers

P.S> Asureus is the best Torrent client I have come across.

I have used Azureus, too, but I don't know anything more about managing torrents at the originating server end. What would be involved in hosting?
Cheers

Hi, the ISO i have at the moment is puppy-215CE-Alpha which is only 135Mb
Where is the one you are referring to?
I will try and use Pupctorrent to make it available
Will let you know when I have started the process and perhaps you can test it for me.
Cheers
Tony

ok, time to test puppyisos.org:

And yes, a torrent would be great especially for the first days, to avoid that the server gets closed for bandwidth-reasons.
But torrents are not allowed by my hoster.

Hi Mu, I have found the following 3 sites that appear to offer free torrent hosting.
Would you be able to upload directly to them and then add the links in the appropriate places?
I have been trying these web site below and each time it fails before completion. I have a feeling it's some kind of scam (advertising pops up) or perhaps some hacking attempt? Any thoughts?

Mark, the ISO is already at ftp.servage.net - I uploaded to user 123upload before I saw your post about splitting things up into ISO's and dotpup/dotpet files.
Any chance it can simply be moved across, rather than me uploading it again from scratch?
Both the Puppy 2.15CE Standard ISO (135Mb) and Puppy 2.15CE Office ISO (406Mb) are in my sub-directory under /WhoDo/Development-do not mirror. That is just to save stuff from being mirrored until ready. Both are ready, complete with md5 checksums and a software list.
Cheers

Hi, didn't realise this site was here. (Puppy really needs a defragmenter!)
http://s3.amazonaws.com/puppy/index.html
The 2.14 torrent seems nicely active, perhaps it can go on there or maybe just one place is best? (probably)

Also I cannot upload it for you to the new server from my hotel

Ok, I'll upload it again from scratch, probably while I'm sleeping tonight. It took about 4 - 5 hours last time, and I don't think my ADSL was the problem. I was getting less than a third of my usual upload speed. Thought it was probably the International link that sometimes gets really slow.
Thanks anyway, mate.

MU, WhoDo.
Please don't change anything ATM. I've almost gotten the file & can host until my bandwidth is eaten up for the day.

ok, I'll leave it there until whoodo finished the new upload or I see extreme peaks in bandwidth-usage on the dotpup-server.

Downloading from my server to verify md5, seems quite slow for now. (3 hours...?) Will post updated download link when confirmed.
