Unimportant. If you want to replace FTP with bittorrent there has to be something for the rest of us.

Nothing is stopping mirror people from running both, infact it probably wouldn't work well for a FTP-type install because with bt you generally feed the client a torrent file and it downloads everything in the file. I know some torrent clients let you specify priority and I think even exclude files from being downloaded, so it's possible but I don't know how much work it would be or if it would be worth it for system installations.

Last time I looked Debian tried to have a floppy based network install. They couldn't be bothered to get it to work on one floppy, but they had it.

Yea, I'm not sure how many floppies it ended up being or if it even works. I only played with the CD netinstall since even my 10 year old Alpha boots from an IDE CDROM just fine.

But we're getting pretty far off topic.

I know, but this is more interesting.
