Hi List,
Wondering if there is a syntax for /etc/make.conf that allows using a local
filesystem tree as a mirror.  Something like this:

Prior to editing /etc/make.conf

plug in USB hard disk
mkdir /mirror
mount /dev/sda1 /mirror

where /mirror then has /mirror/gentoo which is a valid mirror tree.  Then
make an entry in /etc/make.conf that uses that file tree as the preferred
mirror.  Note /dev/sda1 is a USB hard drive and mounts fine (it is the
actual mirror tree I use locally from another machine that has been running
ftp, but I thought it might work to move it over and point locally??

Thank,
Michael Balamuth
