Actually, I just checked the FAQ (and looked at the directory contents
:) and it's not got the actual .iso's; they use a "psuedo" CD thing
where it download various bits for the CD then grabs all the packages
froma local mirror and throws them all together.  A bit silly
considering mirror.ac.uk _is_ the local mirror :)

Anyway, Sunsite NE does have them, and at only 8 hops again :)

ftp://sunsite.org.uk/packages/debian-cd/2.1_r4/i386/
