There have been links to a few ftp servers people have set up
with all 4 discs posted here in the last couple of days. The one
I used was pretty fast though when I checked it against bittorent
there was a problem on a couple of the ISO's. On one of them
about 76% through the check, I'm guessing, it found something
different than the bittorent ISO so it took some time to correct
it. On one of the others it made it through about 98% of the
check but corrected it in a few minutes.
