It is available, if you can connect to the server. The server us very busy and very, very slow. I have been down loading it for about 12 hours and have 2% of 1 iso

Have you tried kernel.org?

http://mirrors.kernel.org/suse/i386/10.0/iso/

They have nearly infinite bandwidth and monster servers.

And surely there's a .torrent for it somewhere...(anybody have an URL for that?)

mirrors.kernel.org is a good source for many things. (But don't tell anyone else.) I can usually max out my 4 mbit connection.

If anyone is interested, kernel.org is not one server, but two. They are identical and hosted in two different parts of the US.

The hardware was donated by HP. Each server is a 4 way Opteron box, each with 24GB of memory and each with a 1 gbit connection to the internet. The 24GB of RAM was carefully sized to allow *all* file download requests to be serviced directly out of memory.
