Re: How to create a local archive of debian ftp ?
Hello,
First, thanks for your reply, and sorry for my last message about apt-move, I've
didn't see you've answered me in this mailing list thread.
> How's you're sources.list?
My sources.list looks like something like that :
deb http://ftp.fr.debian.org/debian potato main contrib non-free
deb http://ftp.fr.debian.org/debian-non-US potato/non-US main contrib non-free
deb-src http://ftp.fr.debian.org/debian potato main contrib non-free
deb-src http://ftp.fr.debian.org/debian-non-US potato/non-US main contrib
non-free
I'm creating the mirror on a machine using potato with hight bandwith (ADSL in
french).
But I want to mirror the woody archive.

As I'm using potato on this machine, that's what I want.

But, If I add 'woody' on my sources.dist, my distrib will be updated to woody,
not potato ?
Is it ?

Really on a potato ?

So did I compromised my potato distribution by using apt-move mirror for a woody
?

No.

No, I've got a fast connection. 130Kbytes/sec

They seem to be, my log file seems to say this, but I didn't try to use apt-get
on my potato machine for these woody packages.
