See http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Local_Mirror for information how to setup a mirror. You need to send your IP to Dale Blount to be allowed to rsync from official server, and then notify Dan McGee to be added to Pacman's mirrorlist. You can see their email addresses at http://www.archlinux.org/developers/ -- Roman Kyrylych (Роман Кирилич) _______________________________________________ arch mailing list [email protected] http://archlinux.org/mailman/listinfo/arch
