Greetings, I'm working on an automated Debian installation without network access. I've discovered the --make-tarball and --unpack-tarball switches which I use to create the tarball and use it as repo. the initial deployment is this: debootstrap --arch amd64 --unpack-tarball /tmp/debs.tar.gz stable /mnt which installs the base pkgs however debs.tar.gz holds other deb files which I want to install when within the chroot. I looked at the /mnt after the initial deployment and I see that there are files that might help me in /var/cache/apt/archives/ and /var/lib/apt/lists/. so I was wondering, is there a way to use these files to create a valid local repo and use it to install the pkgs I've prepared using the --make-tarball switch. is there a standard way to do it which I've might have missed while looking online?
Thanks, Dagg
