Hi, Thanks to all the people answered my question on the disk space required for Hamm mirror.
I've started to mirror it yesterday and the it showed that it required about 1.5G. Is it too much? Here is my excluded pattern from the mirror file. exclude_patt=(.mirrorinfo|Contents-(i386|alpha|sparc|m68k|powerpc)$|disks-(alpha|sparc|m68k|powerpc)$|Incoming|WebPages|\.mirror$|\.recent.$|^Contents$|^doc|^local$|binary-(alpha|sparc|m68k|powerpc)|debian-(bugs|lists)|development|dists|experimental|i-connect-fixes|indices|ls-lR|msdos-i386|private|project|unstable|upgrades) BTW, are there still a lot packages symlink to the bo/ ? Thanks! Secondly, what is the best options to used for the mke2fs on partion used for mirror? I formatted an ext2 partion on my syjet 1.5G cartridge drive and it can have only 1414447 1024-blocks available. The numbers did not add up to be 1.5G! Thanks! -- Timothy C.
