Re: How much space does a Debian mirror take?



You dont't need a high speed link if you are very patiant. :-)  The entire 
mirror is around 1 Gig, so if you get a good 28.8 connection you should 
be able to download about 1 meg every 6 minutes.  so 1 gig would be 6000 
minutes or 100 hours or about 4-5 days for the initail mirror.  After 
that you should be able to do it overnight.

Hope this helps,

Shaya
