Downloading with rsync when the link was cut
Posted: 03 Mar 2015, 22:30
1.0 Downloading current from packages.slackware.com, I used:
Downloading current, I followed the following procedure and targeted /data on /mnt/sda6 where is installed my 32 bit porteus-plasma system.

2.0 As I lost my link in the middle of the download, how should I download only the missing files? In a case where /slackware /a to /slackware/kde were already downloaded. Is it?
Any advice? I know that this does not work as it erases all the already downloaded files in the /mnt/sda6/data folder. Maybe I should download in a second folder called /mnt/sda6/data2.
