Download issues

I got a quick question. I am trying to download the Zorin 5 OS off of the Zorin site and I am using imgburn like it says and it says it downloads the 1.1 Gb but then when I look it up in its source folder it is 0 bytes. I tried putting on a DVD anyway and booting computer off of it, but that obviously didn't work I wouldn't be asking this question. I pretty new to this stuff so help is a appreciated but help in english will be most helpful. haha thanks

Hello Graupmann,
The size is good (1,10 GB),try to burn DVD (speed x4) with other programm.

ATTENTION: To avoid any complications, we recommend you to download Zorin OS using Firefox as other browsers may corrupt the file and may cause errors.

The problem is when its downloading it shows the 1.1 gigs in the firefox download manager but in the source folder where it downloads to the entire file is 0 bytes..... should I still check it with the winmd5?

If you are on Windows:

1) Please go to http://unxutils.sourceforge.net/ and download http://unxutils.sourceforge.net/UnxUtils.zip

2) Extract it into your C:\Windows\System32 directory

3) Open up a command prompt by via one of these methods:
a) Start > Programs > Accessories Command Prompt
b) Start Menu > Run > Cmd [ENTER KEY]
c) Start Menu Search > cmd [ENTER KEY]

(Method varies with Windows version)

4) In the command prompt, type this and hit the [ENTER KEY]

cd c:\

5) Once the terminal command is open, type this in it and hit the [ENTER KEY] if you want the 32-bit version:

wget -c -t0 http://distro.ibiblio.org/pub/linux/dis ... ore-32.iso

or

For the 64-bit version, do this:

wget -c -t0 http://distro.ibiblio.org/pub/linux/dis ... ore-64.iso

If you are already on Linux, just do step 5. That's it.

Now whether you're on Windows or Linux (or Mac), just burn the ISO to DVD and proceed with runing it from the live CD and/or the normal installation process.

I never download via a web browser since I prefer wget instead. Unixutils is a collection of Linux commands which have been ported over to Windows via the CygWin compiler.

Thanks! Ill give it a shot tonight after work

It sounds like the download mirror is/may be defect, try a different mirror and when you burn the ISO file, do so at the slowest possible speed for the type of disk you are using.

Only use Firefox browser!!.

If you want a good free burner prog for Windows, I would use "Ashampoo Burning Free" to burn the ISO to a disk!!.
