Disk replacement (affecting mirrors)

Just about an hour ago finished the replacement of a potentially failing disk drive on the server. Unfortunately, this affected the mirrors, because their partition was on the drive without a backup. So mirrors were unavailable between about 2021-09-27 20:06 EEST and about 2021-09-28 05:41 EEST. Sorry for that, but the replacement was necessary to prevent the consequences of imminent drive failure.

The new drive is 4 times the size of the previous one, so eventually more mirrors and/or other content may come soon. The mirrors of GNU and Slackware are available again now and up to sync, so happy downloading!
