Hello,

Anyone heard of rsync doing a negative percentage download?!  

I am using rsync to download FC3 DVD iso, and it now shows the status as : 
FC3-i386-DVD.iso
2035310933 (-111%)  

The dir listing of rsync.mirrorservice.org::download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/fedora/linux/core/3/i386/iso/ shows: Note the negative file size for DVD iso!

Looks like this problem is with every rsync mirror in North America that has the i386 dvd iso file. I dont know about other servers though. 

Why is this happening and how do I correct it?
Is all my download wasted?  
Anyone else run into same problem?
I rsync'ed FC3 CD ISO files with no problems.

I have entered a bug : http://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla...g.cgi?id=139474. but I am hoping someone will provide a solution sooner on this mailing list so I can resume and  complete my dvd download

Thanks for your response,
Prem
