I tried to seed the bit torrent

transmission not working
pupctorrent needed downloading - so I did

Still no luck - anyone else seeding, providing a torrent?

2.15 Community Edition is a quantum leap for Puppy.
Thanks to Warren and all involved.

Yikes, who put my direct iso link on DistroWatch? That blew threw 172 GB in no time.

which is interesting as it's 100GB limit.

Maybe Ladislav could edit the announce to not include direct iso link as the server is down until 0100 UTC.

I'm also seeding the torrent for a while, currently 11 seeding & 2 downloading.

It looks awesome. Too bad I didn't have enough time to participate.

I liked the visual consistency and I'm sure that's where most people will focus, although I know how much work you all put on the "behind the scenes" modifications that are not apparent and are intended to make this a better experience for the user.

Thank you for all your effort and congratulations.

I don't seem to be able to get hold of the torrent, does anyone have a working linK?

Cheers, Mike

You have obviously done a great job of convincing everyone that 2.15CE is the one to have as yet again bandwidth exceeded.

Tried every link offered with exception of torrent as I dont know what to do with it.

Can you advise on how I treat the final version as until now I was using stand along CDs. I want to work with a multisession disk and ask what do I do with the OOo and web sfs files. Where do I put them ?

I will keep on trying to get the final download and await your advice.

Many thanks for everything

Ian

Visually this is great,i love the blueish icons and the menu system goes well with the background.

It would be good if all the links on the main browser page worked fine like http://www.murga.org/%7Epuppy/viewtopic.php?t=9678 doesn't work

There are bittorrent clients for Puppy, but I know very little about them. I just used Azureus, which I included in the web_215.sfs file. If you already have that file, just use it. Download the torrent file and open it with Azureus, and it should start downloading.

Otherwise, there should be instructions on the forum about ctorrent (I think that's the name).

Ctorrent has to be added to 215 by way of the puppy software package manager, as it is not installed. If you have either web_215.sfs or webmini_215.sfs, then Azureus will work fine. If you would like to use transmisson, simply download the torrent file to a directory such as dotpups-downloads, start transmission client, click add, browse through to the directory that you downloaded the torrent to and pick it. That should do the trick.

Note to people not familiar with torrents. Torrents DEPEND on you leaving them active after you have the file yourself! If you download the torrent, if at all possible, leave the torrent client program active as long as possible. this will help other users to recieve their file much faster. if hardly anyone seeds, then the file will not persist very well. Unfortunately, if everyone stops seeding, there is no torrent. LUCKILY, we are puppy people, and this IS Puppy, so it shouldn't be a big problem. If you cant seed continuously, just start back up your used torrent client any time your browsing the web with puppy and it should be a great pickme up for everyone!

Puppy has been uploaded to this site:

EDIT: Actually the torrent was uploaded, and I am helping to seed it.

I hope this helps.

The torrent posted by Previously Known As Guest is functional; I'm 2/3 of the way done and will leave my computer (a Windows 98SE box using MicroTorrent) on, to seed through the weekend. The first half-hour was very slow. Now, two hours into it, I'm seeing 160-200kbps on my 256/512kbps ADSL line. It says there is only 38 minutes to go. Hmm, probably less than that, as it has gone from 64% done to 76% done just as I was typing this. Yeah, now it says only 26 minutes left to go.

60 GB in under an hour

I've pulled the actual ISO link as the direct link on DW is killing my server. All other files including .sfs files available until bandwidth is consumed for the day. There are several hosts/mirrors for the ISO, torrents included. I'm trying to maintain functionality of the server & spread the demand around a bit. On DW the ISO is linked to my site, the md5 is linked to ibiblio.

Hopefully DW readers will click the download link now. Sorry for the inconvenience.

EDIT:

I see the DW link is changed

the iso has been re-enabled for download on pkagfiles.net. Btw, I'm still running the torrent & will for a while.

Hopefully everyone gets the files they want.

Happy F'ing Easter.

So far I've seeded substantial pieces of it to one downloader in Stockton, California, one in New South Wales, Australia, another in Western Australia, and one ongoing right now in the Philippines. Gee. I wish I could charge long-distance tariffs.

When I try to open the puppy-215CE-Final.iso.torrent in Transmission, an errormessage pops up:

Failed to load torrent file:
/mnt/sda7/_torrent/puppy-215CE-Final.iso.torrent: not a valid torrent file

I downloaded it from different locations to different folders without success, and tried 2 versions of Transmission.
Any ideas?

Thanks, Mark
