debian mirror

[Stephan Hermann]

Hi Again,

I'm sorry I forgot to tell you how it works:

put the script as "mirror_ubuntu_dist.sh" somehere in your $PATH
then create symlinks like that:

ln -s mirror_ubuntu_dist.sh mirror_lucid
ln -s mirror_ubuntu_dist.sh mirror_karmic

then start ./mirror_lucid to debmirror ubuntu lucid
or ./mirror_karmic to debmirror karmic

it creates separate debmirrors for the different releases, and not one
archive for all releases.
So you can decide which release you want, and you could put that mirror
on an LVM device, which you can destroy, snapshot or whatever you want
with it.

Regards,

\sh
