Is there any interest in my turning the article I'm working on on the
Debian Wiki (http://wiki.debian.org/index.cgi?DebianCustomCD) into a
full-blow HOWTO, and any case I would welcome any comments/suggestions
on what I've got so far.

This should be fixed for the 2007-12-18-1 snapshots and later. If not, it

Here's what I'm adding to the wiki, you may find it helpful.
'''NOTE''' Using a full mirror, or a mostly full mirror is best
practice. You should only use a partial mirror if you absolutely must
(e.g. due to disk constraints) and realize that it is unsupported.
