I will look at that...AFAIK backtrack 5 won't run on its own yet, it needs a chroot - correct me if I'm wrong. I am however looking at adding SHR, I just need to find my other microSD card (or get another one).

For comparison, I downloaded the new OSX Lion installer the other day and it was 3.74GB..... luckily, I did it while on my network at work.... didn't take very long...would have taken a long time at home...
Anyway to slice up the file in segments? Just a thought.....

For one to torrent a large file (uncompressed form) places a heavy burden on their connection when it could be easily solved by compressing it originally.
Even qole has his various chroot images in compressed LZMA form to save both bandwidth and disk space. Heck, to even create a blank chroot image that is 4GB in size and to share that for instance is a real waste when using bzip2 for instance creates a filesize of somewhere around 100KB at most.
