The Ubuntu Linux Dial-Up Download Challenge!

>is there a site somewhere that I can host pieces of the file?
That is too kind, sir. And since you ask-
I favor file hosts that allow free users to resume failed downloads.
If a user jumps through the requisite hoops/time-outs/ads/captchas then they should get their download, not get their download maybe.
As of this writing, some sites that allow resuming for free users include MegaUpload, Mediafire, MegaShares, and SpeedyShare. >
But we won't need a file host for this. ;-)
These ISOs are on servers that support http resuming.
If the download fails, I can reload it with zero data-loss.
My game is tight.
If the download corrupts, then I'll un-corrupt it.
My mojo is strong.
The challenge will be met, and victory mine.
I. am. bulletproof.

Well, is there a site somewhere that I can host pieces of the file? I have at least two programs that can separate the ISO into smaller-sized files, so it'll be more practical to download via dial-up. :-)
