Dear All,
I have download the centos 5.2 iso from the Centos website but the downloaded file seems to be split in 2 parts
52617147 Jun 28 23:45 CentOS-5.2-i386-bin-DVD.iso 3967983685 Jun 19 20:24 CentOS-5.2-i386-bin-DVD.iso.1
i also ran a md5sum but the md5 checksum is different
i would appreciate if someone cd help me or tell me a site where i cd download CentOS 5.2
hard to say what happened when you downloaded, what program did you use to download it it? `wget` has a habit of creating a .1 file if its told to download a file that already exists in the same directory. obviously, that first file you list above is way too short. Its possible that 2nd file is the whole .iso, did you run a md5sum against it ?
Most of the mirrors do NOT have the DVD .iso file as its just too big. I'd suggest using a torrent program such as rtorrent or ctorrent or whatever, with the .torrent file that should have been in the same directory as that .ISO
Thanks john for ur immediade reply actually i used wget to download it but im 100% sure there was no file b4 in the same directory with the same name also the md5sum was different as i said b4 for the second file
