1 Hi all:
2 What is up with the change to mirrors.towbit.net for emerge downloads? I just
3 did a fresh install of Gentoo and must have lost a full day doing the
4 emerges. There were many times when emerge was unable to connect to
5 mirrors.towbit.net, path not found/or connection timed out. Also the download
6 speed was anywhere from 153 b/s to a blazing 8 k/s all of this with many
7 pauses with the downloads. This is not good and agrivates the long compile
8 times for a new install.
