It depends, for the boot disk image, it'll only takes you a few minutes.
But the distribution part which is about 50 mb will take you 4 hours
(it takes that awful long time in my machine). I don't think the bell-lab's
server supporting getright and/or stuff like that.... Since I've try that.
Be sure to download it at night time :-)
With download managers that can auto dailup and disconnect itself.
Good luck
