Request: ISO image of install disk

Logos 4 is disigned to work with sychronizing across a user's multiple computers. Can we please have an ISO image of a DVD with the installation program and the most common resources available so that we don't have to spend as much time DLing resources?

It had been discussed, however no final decision/comment that I have seen yet. I'm another in the let us download the .iso of the resource DVD... As well as a way to download/back-up our license ourselves...

Gives the end-user the ability to have access to their library and install if they are not able to connect to the internet for any amount of time, or to avoid overage fees for those that do face them.

The installation disc is a dual-layer DVD, so the ISO is 7.9GB (and it only includes the resources through Platinum); is this too large, or is it what you want?

It would suite me just perfect! Thanks for putting this together for us.

I think it would be worth the one huge download to have it available as a back-up/emergency install option.

That's actually a great idea for installing on a few computers. It'll end up saving Logos some bandwidth too.

Excellent. Putting this on an 8BG USB drive will make the install on my laptop easier.

Bradley, is Logos 4.0 available on a sd card or other flash media, like we have for 3.0?

Here is an idea...

Pay the $8.95 ground UPS shipping and get your disk. That is an option when you get your new package plus you can also download while you wait for your DVD. So if you chose not to pay the extra shipping cost for a disk, I don't we should ask LOGOS to come up with another way to install on multiple platforms.

No, it isn't yet. (And since the 3.0 SD card was targeted at netbooks, and Logos 4 isn't really targeted at netbooks, I'm not sure if it will be coming back or not.)

I would love to have the ISO image available, as well. Thanks for a great product.

Logos 4 isn't really targeted at netbooks,

I run Logos on my netbook daily and it works great! Honestly no complaints on my netbook except that initial indexing takes just more than 24 hours. But that's not really that bad. It definitely doesn't run any worse than 3

Please keep netbooks at least in-mind as you proceed.

Agree 100% - or I wouldn't have spent time helping other netbook users to install.

In fact, I think that it's a marvel on a netbook. I used it for over 4 weeks (in Beta) only on a netbook and the number of complaints which were directly netbook related were minimal (I get no pictures on my home page).

Will it be possible to get a Media-Only DVD, as with L3?

Suggestion: that logos seed a torrent of the ISO. If the ISO lacked any license information, so what then if a million other people wanted a copy?

If you seed it I'll repeat it myself as well.

Lots of companies are looking into bittorrent. Check it out: http://www.bittorrent.com

I wanted to let you know I do seed the PBB torrents from your site. Thanks.

For what it is worth, I would buy the SD or any flash media device with the image on it, including the hardware. For me, the portability of a card is worth every penny and I find them far more functional than Disc.

I hope you consider making images/data available this way again.

https://community.logos.com/discussion/comment/32980#Comment_32980

Good idea Thomas.

+1 on the torrent idea. Logos can seed it as well with their servers.

Just checked eBay and the 64GB USB drives are running $25 w/free shipping. Seems everything can be accomodated for a fee.

Please, no torrents.

https://community.logos.com/discussion/comment/33321#Comment_33321

David, I'm curious why? If it's because you don't want to run BT yourself, that's fine - I'd hope that both were available.

David Palmer

https://community.logos.com/discussion/comment/33331#Comment_33331

Thomas, I didn't mean to sound so dogmatic. You nailed it, I hate running BT; however, whatever Logos decides to do is totally up to them (no problem with that). I think both options would be great.

Put me down on the growing list of people who would like an ISO image of the installation disk. I'm in Australia and am much too impatient to wait for the mail to be delivered, which is why I opted to download the files. Being able to download the disk, rather than files, would have made the install process (with its inevitable hiccups) that much easier.

Not much bandwidth available to me, I'm afraid. I've already maxed out the church's account (so sad).

Grace and peace,
Ian

I ran into a slight problem: I was going to host the file at Amazon S3 (which will also automatically seed the file), but it can't store files over 5GB. (And none of the tools I was using to upload informed me of this salient fact, so I kept retrying the upload for far longer than necessary...)

Before I go and simply make the ISO image available via FTP, does anyone have any better suggestions? (I could split the file into two parts, but I don't think I can convince S3 to construct one torrent from the two files.)

Thomas, A lot of people in rural areas don't have fast or even slow internet service. When I had SWB DSL service they warned me hosting files on a BBS (even non-copyrighted) was against my private account usage agreement. It consumed more bandwidth than they were willing to alot me. I had to switch to Cox broadband to keep my fast & voluminous file transfers. My father is in a small town with slow dial-up. He could never download 10GB. His phone service & elecricity aren't that reliable.

There are other reasons too.

TCBlack

https://community.logos.com/discussion/comment/33573#Comment_33573

Matthew,

Granted, but if I were on slow dialup, I wouldn't consider downloading a whole ISO, Bittorrent or not. I would have it shipped to me. I would presume that anyone interested in downloading an ISO would have the bandwidth for it.

TCBlack

https://community.logos.com/discussion/comment/33566#Comment_33566

Bradley, could you split the file and then create your own torrent to upload to S3? uTorrent (bittorrent.com) has the ability to create torrent files, you just type in the host information.

Matthew C Jones

https://community.logos.com/discussion/comment/33566#Comment_33566

think I can convince S3 to construct one torrent from the two files.)

Must it be one ISO? If you created smaller discs and had multiples (Like the old X Series & Version 3 discs, --remember way back when... [:D] ?)

Could you not put Logos 4 on one, and split resources for Gold, Platinum, Portfolio 1,2,3 and so on ?

Sorry for duplicating Thomas' post. Got distracted with a kid crisis halfway through. Still, I think it would work.

Why not create a torrent and let a few people seed it for you? That way you don't need to worry about FTP and it'll distribute quickly with enough seeders.

Does this include the resources or must they all be downloaded. I be installing on a number of computers at a school, so it would sure help if they all did not have to download the books.

It includes all the resources in the Scholar's Library: Platinum collection (and below).

Thank-you very much! I've burned the ISO image onto a DVD. Is there a way to get an existing Logos 4 installation to look to the DVD for resources instead of trying to download?

Hi Bradley,

Can you (or anyone else) also make the iso for the Logos 3 image available?

http://www.logos.com/products/details/5592

I've been trying to upgrade through the script through the download option and it keeps downloading the first book over and over again. Plus I would like to have the install program so that I can re-install when I re-image my computer.

I bought the media disk, but it's for logos 4, and it's out of date already.

Thanks,
