I am currently maintaining two mirrors. The first one
is a (diskspace) donation from an ISP (ca. 25 Gigs). It has totally
100 Gigs space, but mainly for mirroring TUCOWS. The
second one is inside a university. It has 4 IDE disks
(7.5G + 7.5G + 6G + 6G) but it is used for everything (WWW and FTP).
I don't know how it is elsewhere, but I observe:
- not many are interested in CDROM #2 dan #3
- not many are interested in "non i386" (Poor people can not afford it :-)
- many "complains" about the no "non-free" policy :-(
- it is VERY difficult to install. I myself have never
successfully installed X11 (without manually doing XF86Setup)
and setting non-US in /etc/apt/sources.lists automatically.
Therefore, I usually ask those without experience to use
Corel Linux. But, updating from Corel to the official Debian
is yet another problem.
