Could you write how you did it?
Reverting back to rsync when you have an almost finished image (lets call it binary-i386-1.iso) you find a mirror with rsync acccess (lets call that one ftp.se.debian.org). Then you use rsync to make the amlost finished image an exact copy of the one on the server, which due to the rsync protocol doesn't involve huge downloads. Something like: rsync ftp.se.debian.org::debian-iso/2.2_rev4/i386/binary-i386-1.iso binary-i386-1.iso > By the way, does anyone know where I can find information on how to make > netinst images? Sorry, I have no idea bout that. Hopefully someone else does. /Mattias Wadenstein -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
