OK. I didn't do that but with i386 there it is identical to what's 
there. I know have 2 mirrors to check and both error out when they 
appear to stop getting much past 2.5 mb of the total 7.7 mb required. 
Odd because I manually d/l the darn thing and it IS 7.7 Mb.

Seems I need to figure out what is causing this problem.
