1 Hi,
2
3 On the download/install page (http://www.gentoo.org/index-download.html),
4 when I click on the link
5 http://www.ibiblio.org/gentoo/releases/1.0_rc5/isos/gentoo-i686-exclusive-bin-1.0_rc5-r3.iso,
6 the ibiblio web server returns an HTTP Content-Type of text/plain instead
7 of application/octet-stream so when I save it under Windows, I get a bigger
8 and corrupted file (LFs have been changed to CR LFs I guess).
9 I have tied to access this URL from ftp as ftp://www.ibiblio.org/... but it
10 doesn't work stating that the file doesn't exist.
11 Just to tell that I had to download the file again from sourceforge (which
12 was down yesterday evening).

14 Thank you anyway, I will now try and install your distro.

16 Cheers.
