LFS 6.4 (Now 6.6) Package Tarball

[fos]

I finally got around to downloading all of the packages specified in the LFS 6.4 text.

I collected them into a tarball.


Send me a PM and I'll provide the link.

This fetches the individual files directly. Running it from inside the /sources directory saves a few steps if your host system has net access ;)
#!/bin/bash
wget http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/lfs/downloads/stable/LFS-BOOK-6.4-wget-list
for link in $(cat LFS-BOOK-6.4-wget-list)
do
wget $link
done
(By the way fos... estimated d/l time of your file was 58 minutes)

I know, but I'm lazy. There are two files on the list that have been corrected on the LFS errata page. I tried the link three time from Houston to Dallas and it only took about 5 minutes. I do have a commercial cable internet connection which is quite fast.

I hope you find them useful.
