459752 2006-06-01 20:34:00 There will be a nz mirror setup by 5pm tonight - more details to follow Dannz (1668)
459753 2006-06-01 20:50:00 Also i get the feeling there will be a FULL mirror sometime tomorrow. (ftp://debian.co.nz/ubuntu-iso/dapper)
Im just going to mirror the desktop versions of Ubuntu and Kubuntu..

459754 2006-06-01 21:12:00 Full.... heck yeah.

I wouldn't mind seeing the logs of ubuntu.com, how much hits they will get this week, and how much TB's of ubuntu will be downloaded.

have ubuntu put out the lite desktop version yet, using XFCE rather than KDE or Gnome?, I know you can install xfce, but there was supposed to be a version coming out set up for it

um.. from kubuntu's download site:
"Most of our Servers are down due to a heavy load of traffic - 7.8 TerraByte the last 12 Hours."


ohwelz..we got our nz server..
ha.just that i downloaded the desktop iso instead of the alternative iso..
so..download again..otherwise can't update from cd..stpuid me..



just another question..
when i run update should i run it in the console instead of inside xorg and kde and stuff
saw on ubuntu forum telling you to quit the programs while upgrading
so is this what they mean?

459760 2006-06-03 10:16:00 yay after some struggle upgrade done~
manage to fix broken linux stuff within one day..
new record for me :D

just a note to those people who want to use cd upgrade..
not sure why but when i do it
the cd alone was not enough to upgrade the stuff
prob coz i installed other stuff that's not on the cd
but the werid thing is i can't even get the system updated without going online to fetch things
i would've thought that with the cd at least i can get the bare system upgraded
then upgrade the programs i personally use myself..but guess that wasn't the case..

..yea..just a note to whoever wanting to upgrade..
