What happened to the downloads?

[Old-Polack]

Just a note.... Not all of the mirrors have synced and many have partial ISOs. The full KDE ISO is 695mb.

Thanks, Texstar! I just noticed that "donate" button again...

I just tried 5 mirrors chosen at random, and none had completed syncing the full version. One had not yet started; still working on MiniMe. Your choice is use one of the already posted, and probably overloaded, completed links, or wait for the rest of the mirrors to finish syncing.

I've found serenity... and will wait for the links to work on the main page. Nothing here's so broke (and I've tried my best dumbness on it) that I can't wait it out.

Am I blind???

Still don't see it   

[kilobit]

Ok, apparently I thought that THIS SITE was the main site. I still do not see a link or anything at all pointing to http://pclosusers.com/isos/livecd/
So, not i do not see them on the site, however I will download the iso's from the link you gave me, Thanks!

Like I said in previous posts, I guess I have been spoiled by M$ stuff for so long that I expect to see things like this in the download section, not having to ask in the forums about it.
You would think it would be right next to the md5 hash where it was before. Unless my browser is not showing it!

kilobit,
When all ISOs are uploaded and synced, the announcement and download links will be added to the main page.

Sorry for the grief, I just get frustrated because I dont understand how things work here!

[Neal ManBear]

That's okay. You're new here.

Read the forum. There's many topics with lots of very informative posts. You can learn a lot.

Guys I dont know where to post this, but I have a 100mbit internet connection with 1000GB/month that is currently sitting idle. If this is needed for the new rollout let me know!

Hope this helps. Have Fun!!

Yep, should definitely be fun for all, Thanks !

Plus I made a Twitter acct 

Sweet 

 
so francis, um, are you now a twit? 

I've always been a Twit, but not a tweeter twit. Isn't it funny how the most silly things are so popular, (I'm so off topic, but someone else got me here, so ...) Twitter is good for following Texstar or someone doing something I need to know about, what I get up to is my business, uhum...

On a serious note, and sorry am I to make a whole new thread for such a little question ?
I just killed my computer installing PCLinuxOS MiniMe 2010. Lucky I have a few skills and was able to boot into XP, after a scarey 10 minutes staring at the unresponsive NEC start screen.

Live CD, PCLinuxOS 2010 is beautiful, so after seeing all things important opened , browsed the web, and went "wow", and hit the "Install PCLinuxOS" icon on desktop.
Feeling tentative let the wizard select 6 GB's which I wasn't happy about, at least 12 is what I want. next > GRUB. Fine, oh what's this advanced tab say ? Hmmm, not a lot clicked the X to close window and the install stopped. Wow, became, "Yes, I am stupid", then,  "who built this thing, looks nice but ..."
Really the install shouldn't have borked, I suppose, and my fault entirely hitting the "Install PCLinuxOS" icon on desktop", again ... yes I know It was obvious we were making another set of partitions, so i quit. After exit the mandatory windows CHKDSK, invoked by PCLOS ran, after all was found to be o.k. found myself staring at the unresponsive Boot screen, NEC.
That's when I pulled the power after a few power button pushes that lead back to a dead boot screen. I thought I might have lost both bootloaders, GRUB, and windows MBR. Ten minutes later I popped the power lead back into the machine and thank goodness it booted into XP. Restored Win MBR, deleted the linux partitions, and here I am.

So in that setup stage were it (the wizard) says 6 GB's of the Windows drive shall be used, I should click onto the CUSTOM selection ? And then size the partitions to my requirements ?
Thankyou

Francis,

I think you should start a new thread.

But I would suggest you set your partitions up prior to installing PCLinuxOS.

You can download and use something like GParted LiveCD and boot into that and carry out the partition setup.

Another thing you may want to consider is getting Windows to do some resizing if you don't have a great deal of space.

Whichever route you choose I'd backup all your data to CD/DVD or USB Stick or Ext HD before doing anything

Thanks menotu .

I have Pro Partitioning tools in Windows, plus 500 GB's to play with, I have always found during install of previous builds partitioning was part of install setup. Research time ... not to worry,  shall start new thread if hit any problems.
