The presence of 'mooch-i386-dvd.iso' means the mirror isn't running with
--delete. ;-)  That is the old u2 binary+source dvd.  For u3, I've split
the dvd into a binary and source dvd.  Most folks don't want the source;
and the simplest way to install Tao u3 is:
- download binary dvd iso and boot.iso
- nfs export directory w/ dvd iso
- boot boot.iso, select nfs, mount the above exported directory
- installer automatically loopback mounts the iso

Also, my plan is to eventually merge the source isos into a single set
for all arches, saving mirror space.

I'll check the mirrors.
