I'm hesitant to report more bugs from 9a559 since 9a581 (the final) is
now out. Unfortunately, my overnight download refuses to mount the disk
image or allow me to burn it, so I can't check the final. I may try again
tonight. That problem may be elsewhere because TimeMachine also complains
it cant mount my backup drive connected to my Airport extreme, even though I
can access it in the finder.

There is a nasty problem with Apple's hosting provider's download server pool; at random times they return an empty packet in the stream (I'm assuming), and the download completes prematurely. This has been inconveniencing me for the past year's worth of seed downloads. In one case I had 12 failed downloads in a row, and DTS ended up mailing me a hard copy. <rdar://problems/5370201> Closed?!! Well, it just happened again trying to download 9A581 today.


Some time ago I did discover a workaround: Using Safari for the download, after approximately 50% download completion, click the small X icon to pause the download, wait a few seconds, then click it again to resume. After doing this, it seems to complete reliably.

Ahem.
