Looks the only way now to grab a DVD is by torrent.
What is the yum install XXXX name to get it on the machine?
I use the rtorrent from rpmforge. Enable that repo and then yum install rtorrent. It's a lean, mean CLI machine! :-)
AND HURRY UP! My new "fat" pipe (potential 1.25MB/sec) has finally edged up to 85.5KB/sec. I need the help folks! ;-)
I have downloaded the torrent file, but what do I execute to grab the DVD?
Thanks, great effort CentOS Team.
Ditto.
BTW: here's a rtorrent command line if you decide on it.
#!/bin/bash export SD=~/../shared/CentOS cd $SD rtorrent \ -s $SD \ -o check_hash=no,key_layout=qwerty \ -o peer_exchange=yes,dht=on \ *.torrent
The "peer_ex..." is useless here as this is not a private torrent. You can drop it. Also, if you don't have multiple torrents, the last line is OK. Otherwise you can drop it and use <ALT><Backspace> with tab completion to selectively enable the ones you want to process.
