Hmmm, I couldn't get this work. I'm home now, but I tried it at work,
due to more decent bandwidth and a really fast local mirror.
Building the .iso itself went fine, updating it with security updates
didn't.
I mounted the .iso loop on /mnt, as per the howto, and then I tried
variations of http://security.debian.org/ as the APT mirror. jigdo-lite
then goes on to scan, and it does in fact scan for all the files, but
gets a 404 for each one.
Problem is, the updates are in a subdir "updates" under "pool", and I
can't find a way to get that in. Had it been updates/pool, it would
have been fine, but it is pool/updates :-| So, no luck there. Also, I
think it seems to look for exactly the same filename, so the security
updates, with sarge1, etc appended, wouldn't be included.
Any further suggestions?
Best,
Kjetil
