So, I'm fairly sure I installed this: VL64-6.0-STD-A0.9.iso sha1sum cdf42b3c6c23b558c68e1685e2398c5ace946bbf md5sum 14f38d60a71f5754ce4646b876323ffc I can't find VL64-6.0-STD-A0.9.iso archived on: vectorlinux.com vectorlinux.osuosl.org vlcore.vectorlinux.com Google finds these two sites which claim they have it: http://ftp2.gr.freebsd.org/pub/dist/vectorlinux/Uelsk8s/iso-test/ http://www.mmnt.net/db/0/0/ftp7.freebsd.org/sites/vectorlinux.com/Uelsk8s/iso-test I've not downloaded from them to test availability of the file. If they have them, check the sums to make sure it's the same. Rod Pemberton
