Torrent stuck at 99%

There are a handful of users who get torrents stucked at 99% when they are using the MLDonkey binary from shadowandy. Seems like shadowandy has fixed the problem!

From his posts, he initially identified the problem due to the lack of space on the mount "/". Just like he faced problem initially with the disk full problem when MLDonkey attempted to write to "/.mldonkey" where he did a symbolic link (symlink) to a directory on "/mnt/HD_a2/mldonkey". Later on he further improvised on it and did away with the symlink.

Instead of symlinking "/tmp" to a directory on "/mnt/HD_a2", he further tweaked the configurations of MLDonkey! Took out a few stuffs and MLDonkey is completing torrents like it always should!

Kudos!
