Well, the site is available.
http://www.liberatedmanuals.com/
I will provide more functions, such as torrents, search, and so
on. Right now the only function is a "list of all manuals", see link
closer to the bottom of the main page. Hopefully you can find the ones
that you need. It is not a bad start.
Yea, thanks for doing that, Ig.
Heads Up: I get a 403 Forbidden error on some links
http://www.liberatedmanuals.com/TM-1...2-13-and-P.pdf
so I checked another randomly
http://www.liberatedmanuals.com/TM-1...1-13-and-P.pdf
also getting a 403.
A couple Huey and Apache manuals downloaded OK, though.
There is a limit of 100 manuals per day and 10 manuals per minute, per
IP. The last limit is just to prevent download accelerators and site
downloader programs from abusing my site. I would say, wait a couple
of minutes and try again.
I believe I had DLed only one prior to that and nothing was DLing at
the time, so something isn't quite right there. You might check into
it if more people give that same feedback.
I will set up torrents for those who want to download all manuals. I
want to work on this after I get all the manuals in.
I DLed and installed the Torrent thing a few years ago and got scared
out of my mind that I had a virus when it started sending multi-MBs of
data out from my drive. I hadn't realized that I'd be a source and it
was slowing down that computer something fierce until I killed it.
Pass, on this end.
If you have ANY idea how to organize this pile of manuals, I am all
ears.
That was my next suggestion. It could take awhile if done manually.
