Thanks for the more recent snapshot.  Thanks for the ls-lR file! 
(This is -current like you said, not 1.5alpha, right?  Or are they 
still the same right now?)

Comparing the ls-lR file with the links there are missing links for: 
the four checksum files in the binary/kernel directory, the 
binary/sets/xmisc.tgz file, and the installation/boot.fs file.

My web browser did something to the two gzipped kernel files, but 
kern.tgz is OK.  An FTP connection would be better for this sort of 
thing, and I'm sure I can do something to fix the problem.

Network weirdness:  I got about 39K/sec downloading a single file. 
Two at once I got about 36K/sec.  4-5 at once I got 28K/sec.  I guess 
that says how many tcp streams I was sharing the slowest pipe with? 
I sure wish I could do this over a modem to home though. |-\
