Would it be right to write "deb > file:/var/cache/apt/archives testing"? Apt needs some addidional files, like "Packages". Use apt-move to move the packages into a hierarchy usable by apt and to create the necessary files. Or simply copy the contents of /var/cache/apt/archives. Or symlink /var/cache/apt/archives from one file system to another. best regards Andreas Janssen -- Andreas Janssen <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> PGP-Key-ID: 0xDC801674 Registered Linux User #267976 http://www.andreas-janssen.de/debian-tipps.html -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
