BitTorrent information

Warning: Not finished yet.

Tracker

This information represents the files shown on the Scarywater MirOS tracker. (Some of the files are also available on some other torrent site.)

The Scarywater tracker has quite often some problems with the statistics server, and the admin doesn't always seem to notice if it's down again. Thus, even if you see zero peers, try the torrent, maybe you're lucky and someone's online and just not shown. Also, most of the recent torrents are multi-tracked.

The last field in the table denotes the architectures the torrent's contents are for: i386, sparc, d(ua)live or dual(-arch). Releases are always labelled #<versionnumber><additional info> while snapshots are usually labelled with their release date, rarely after the events on/for which they were released. If a lower-case letter "c" is added, the snapshot also contains a copy of the CVS repository.

Generic information

... (live, install, arch, dd to hda, etc)

Releases never contain Live CD functionality. The releases offered are always ISO images (single file torrent), dual-arch (appearing as dual in the torrent list).

Snapshots are usually Live+Install CD ISOs for i386, and currently, multi-file downloads for sparc (since there isn't a point in making a live CD for sparc yet) missing a miniroot. Snapshots are almost always only for a single architecture, appearing as i386 or sparc in the torrent list.

The new dualive (appears as dlive in the torrent list for shortness) format is an ISO 9660 image bootable as Install CD (and HDD etc.) on sparc and as Live+Install CD, DVD, HDD, USB-Stick, CF/SD/MMC/… Card on i386. They sometimes contain very few selected binary packages, usually for both architectures, as the size of the image is pretty much at the capacity limit.
