This does look to be thge best way to clone these drives. I dont even
want to attempt to do it with a CD, because I've been thru trying to
configure CD drives and Hard drives on the same cable, and it naver
worked. Not to mention I only have connectors for TWO IDEs and would
need THREE. On top of that, I will do anything to avoid burning CDs.
Thats generally another nightmare, especially if they need to be
bootable.

I'll have to drive to town and see if I can download it at a WIFI, but
it sure seems like the file is borked, and I'm not willing to drive 10
miles for nothing.



Do you have a copy of "wget.exe" ?

wget http://www.domain.com/file.zip

This got 404 Error
The page you requested no longer exists or is temporarily unavailable.

That puts "file.zip" in your current working directory
plus it give you a progress bar to watch the download.

The one in here is fairly small. If I get the gnuwin32 one,
that has bigger files for some reason.

2,265,402 bytes (this is the WinXP windows update fetcher package)

https://web.archive.org/web/20140605...offline921.zip

And this thing quit early too, and left me with a useless 300K file.

Inside the ZIP file, in wsusoffline\bin\ you will find
wget.exe 233984 bytes.

You can then try that on the annoying NGINX server
at dslreports.
