Not sure why but I seem to be having a strange quirk lately.
If I cast a spell (appears to be any spell is effected) and am disconnected
from the net during the download that when I notice and reconnect and then
cast spell again that my /tmp directory where download is first placed seems
to have the file I am retrieving except that it is actually larger than the
file size of the file I am trying to get.

eg. cast -r -c linux
This was cast last night before I went to bed to get kernel 2.5.42
As my connection is 56K modem and only have upto 6 hours connect
time I was disconnected before full file arrived.
Therefore, in morning i reconnected and recast as above.
Once connected I notice that the kernel file size I already have is
around
68MB and am told that there is -39MB to download so it finishes and
then
tells me that linux cannot be installed.

Is anyone else getting this wierdness?
If so, how do I stop it??

Craig
