Windows
Use your preferred third-party Download Manager to download our large files and ISO images. For your convenience, we have tested these Download Managers on Internet Explorer and they work well:
- Go!Zilla
- Internet Download Manager
- Flashget
To download a single file:
- From the download site, under "Download Manager Links,"copy the link for the file you want to download.
- Paste the link into the URL field of the Download Manager and select "OK."
- The file will begin to download.
To download multiple files, repeat the steps listed above for each file.
Linux
Use the Linux wget command-line utility to download our large files and ISO images.
Command Format:
wget -O <filename.xxx> 'DownloadURL1' 'DownloadURL2' 'DownloadURL...'
- Open a terminal window.
- Change to the directory in which you would like the files saved
Important: URLs can often include meta characters such as an ampersand (&). Such characters can be erroneously interpreted by the console shells being used to download. Make sure you enclose the URLs in single-quote marks as shown in the sample above, so the meta characters will not be parsed.
To download a single file:
- From the download site, right-click the file you wish to download and select "Copy link location." URL example: https://download.novell.com:/sendredirect?target=...
- Make sure that the download URL is wrapped in quotes.
- Press enter.
- The file will begin to download.
- Use -O <filename.xxx> to rename the file.
To download multiple files:
- From the download site, right-click on each file you wish to download and select "Copy link location." URL example: https://download.novell.com:/sendredirect?target=...
- Make sure that the download URLs are wrapped in quotes.
- Each file name and link must be separated by a space
- Press enter.
- The files will begin to download.
- Use -O <filename.xxx> to rename the file.
Additional wget command instructions can be found by typing wget --help or man wget in your terminal window.
