Re: Woody CD's



Hello,

The mirrors need some time to catch up the changes.
And for the question, the answer is yes.

> Is it better to have a local mirror of woody and use this to create

For the first you have to know the answer. If you make your images you
don't have to trust in somebody else and you can make them when you need
them.
For the second, yes debian-cd makes bootable CDs.

I think rsync is the best way. But you have to know what do you need.
Try rsync with --exclude option and exclude the unneeded directories.

There is a sample script in the README...
