Comment 2 Felix Wiemann 2003-06-30 09:38:16 UTC

Something appears to be strange about the mirrors. <http://distro.ibiblio.org/pub/linux/distributions/gentoo/snapshots/> doesn't have the most current snapshot, but <http://gentoo.oregonstate.edu/snapshots/> has.

That may have caused the broken tarball. After all, the reported file has now more than 8 megs and seems to be complete.

Maybe there is a bad connection to the mirrors?
