You can also use zsync to save your bandwidth and time while you download the final version of the karmic koala.
zsync is a file transfer program similar to rsync. zsync is optimized for distribution of files across Internet, with one file on a server to be distributed to thousands of down loaders.
zsync -i yourexisting.iso http://final.iso.zsync
If you haven't got zsync installed, just type:
sudo apt-get install zsync
Happy downloading and congrats to everyone that has contributed to the Karmic Koala release, including everybody in GNOME, KDE, Xorg, Ubuntu and Canonical!.
