Title: Downloading from Feeds in one go
Post by: Airwolf on March 02, 2004, 03:57:50 am

Hi all

I do not always have a net connection from my Z. If i want to download from a feed like http://opie.handhelds.org/feed/openzaurus/...le-gcc3/SL5xxx/ (http://opie.handhelds.org/feed/openzaurus/unstable-gcc3/SL5xxx/) is there a way of getting all the files in one go instead of downloading each one seperately?

you can download the files to a local storage space and then tell the installer that the
feed is there, local, intead of on the net... etc.

ps: I have 2 128MB and 1 256MB CF just for this purpose.  pdaxom + davonz/chuckr files ...
finally got larger than 128MB.  Usually, you can get the entire OZ plus like all but 1 or 2
files from the feed into 124MB on the 128MB CF etc.
