Facebook: Fast CentOS mirror
Facebook has a great mirror site for the CentOS ISO’s.
http://mirror.facebook.com/centos/5.5/os/x86_64
Another fast mirror is the USC Linux Users Group Mirror: http://mirrors.usc.edu/pub/linux/distributions/centos/5.5/
This has been one of the fastest mirrors I have found for CentOS. It’s nice to see a social networking site giving back to the Linux community.
If you access the Internet through a proxy, then you’re out of luck… Another option is to create a mirror server on your LAN.

Just tried it with a CentOS netinstall. It is fast!

I like NetInstall best, it’s very handy!

They only host the latest version. I updated the link on my site to point to CentOS 5.5. Another fast mirror I’ve been using is USC. http://mirrors.usc.edu/pub/linux/distributions/centos/5.5/
