I got my image from ftp://ftp.linuxberg.com/pub/ISO/YellowDog/ and it seems
to work fine. From my office I got a transfer rate of 80KB/s which
downloaded the entire thing in a couple of hours. One important tip that I
found out the hard way with an image of MkLinux: do not try to mount the
disk image before burning it! If you use "Toast", then select "Disk image"
from the "Format" menu, and then select the saved imaage. This will burn an
ISO9660 CD.
You're probably better off paying the $25 to Terratec, if you want someone
to sell you a CD.
Hope this helps.
John Wheeler.
