Slightly OT question: How can I use rsync to get a copy of a
netinstall iso image from a Debian repository? I use rsync locally
between hosts on my LAN, but ... What is an 'rsync repository' ? It
is not, so far as I can devine, simply 'rsync' the computer
program. Nor is it 'rsync' type service on an otherwise conventional
Debian repository. Is an 'rsync repository' where I should go to
update an iso image of netinstall? Or where?
A related OT question: where are dvd.iso files of Debian iso.s
available for download using rsync?
Thanks,
