for example:

10000 thx
Download in progress......................... --> 400 kbps
btw:
rapidshare does accept max 50 MB files, but you can split the file with tools like WinRAR.

no worries, ross's cd (the one your downloading) is the easiest to dive into but you may have some issues updating it etc but goto the live cd forum for advice. After you have it working and fancy another play, Corey's excellent ctu zm is a fedora core3 based zm distro that allows you to install a fresh copy. Some people prefer not to use live cd installers etc. I personnaly only had great experiences with the live cd, but you will have issues with certain sata drives as its based on an old kernel, thats what the new cd's are for.

The torrent don't work very well because everyone downloads and very few seed. Every one whom downloads should seed till the file/iso ras a share ratio of at least 2 or 3.
Most of the time I notice that there are only three of us seeding. I have seeded all the distros for zm since Ross first uploaded the torrent. I also have left my bandwidth fairly open.
I don't think it 's much to ask for participation in this. If you download you should seed at least as much as you download. I only have a broadband connection which hosts my website, ftp, and my voip. A majority of the time my phone calls sound like crap from everyone downloading.
After this week, I'm going to be throttling back to 60k to be shared by everyone downloading so if you think it's tough now...
