I have NO Internet @home which mean, I will never be able to install
"embedian-tools".  But since I have a local Debian-Mirror running,
I like to know, the exact URL to download the files needed to build
a local mirror (I do this with some self-made ,irroring scripts on
my Laptop)

OK, I am running ALL three releases (Unstable, Testing and Stable) but
which mirror should I add additionaly?

My local mirror has currently ALL files from Buzz to Etch complete and
this for ALL 12 architectures plus sources.  Nearly 5 TByte of binaries
and sources.

Currenlty I am Updating Lenny and Sid which give me per day in the
middle arround 280 MByte  :-)  which mean, in environement 8000 days my
wirror will hit the limit...

Note: I have never deleted Sources or Binaries since I run Slink.

Thanks, Greetings and nice Day
