[job #15092] debian 3.0r1
Since Debian has blown up in size so much the chance is unfortunately nil. We looked at creating a Debian 3.0r1 Update CD (with some automation inside) but even this task is problematic because this business is less familiar with the Debian architecture.
We were looking for a real simple efficient and if possible automated way to have Debian 3.0r1 installed using a Debian 3.0r0 CD set with 3.0r1 Update CD. We could not come up with one. In comparison in Gentoo's case:
mv /mnt/cdrom/* /usr/portage/distfiles
emerge -u world
would do the job.
Our Debian customers rely on us because they mostly have download limits or use dial-up to gain access to Debian. It is simply uneconomical to download 7 isos for 11 architectures every time Debian does a new release.
If a Debian guru can come up with a way to create a
Debian 3.0r0 -> 3.0r1 Update CD
then we are most happy to supply this disc to our Debian customers.
