Nice work!
I was wondering if there a is a Bit Torrent download for k12ltsp 4.2 ?
I have used bit Torent to get other distributions from
http://www.tlm-project.org/
It seems to work well; altho i don't know if there much advantage over
ftp, other than slow overloaded servers during peak times. And its
cool to help others get Linux if you have extra bandwidth:-)
thanks,
Tim S.
