[PPC] can't download iso

Hey, I was recently given an OS-less g3 imac to mess around with and was hoping to put Arch onto it, but trying to download the .iso from http://www.archlinuxppc.org/download/ times out. Is the link known to be not working, and does anyone have a copy/ know where a mirror is?

Thanks

Ah, the html is bad, try the direct link:

Re: [PPC] can't download iso

Hmm thanks but your link also times out... and http://users.archlinux.de/~gerbra/mirrorcheck.html confirms that ftp.archlinuxppc.org is down. Any other suggestions? Guess I can try again in a few days in case it comes back up.

Re: [PPC] can't download iso

Odd, I'm unable to get it on the webpage but the direct-link i have no problem with.  I guess this goes in the beware of weblinks. wink

Here's it is on rapid share:

I emailed the author so hopefully in the near future this won't be a problem.

Re: [PPC] can't download iso

Just FYI (and not trying to resurrect an old thread because this hasn't changed since then) if you want to download the iso, you have to remove the ftp before archlinux.ppc.org:

wget ftp://archlinuxppc.org/iso/releases/2009-03-30_archppc-ftp.iso

This is the right solution, or use ftp1.archlinuxppc.org instead.

We'll fix the page soon.. thanks for the reporting


Also, don't use the forum for archlinuxPPC related things, but subscribe to archlinuxppc-user @ googlegroups .

Thanks
