Hi ! I'm still running on Mandrake :-)
I want to setup my local deb mirror. For this, I set up so far s debootstrap-based sarge in a User-Mode-Linux environment. I used this to make my own metapackages, which simply pull in other packages or do the right cfengine magick. I put all of the needed *.deb files into a local Debian repository using apt-move. I like the fact that I can use this tool to keep the most current debs in my mirror, e.g. that it automatically deletes outdated debs. Now the PXE-boot doesn't have the *.udebs into them, so I have to incorporate them, too. There is a web page that tells my how to use apt-ftpachive to get an index of the *.udeb files and I succeeded in this. * apt-ftparchive reads in *.udeb files * apt-move deletes outdated deb file * method XYZ does both So, what is method XYZ? AFAIK I can't just have a /var/www/html/debian with the apt-move tree and /var/www/html/local with the the udeb tree, because the debian-installer wants to fetch the stuff from one archive. -- Try Linux 2.6 from BitKeeper for PXA2x0 CPUs at http://www.mn-logistik.de/unsupported/linux-2.6/ -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
