Re: local mirror, apt-move, lan installation
Thus spake Greg Madden : Use the 'sync' option with apt-move. The man page says it will dl all files installed on your box. I've tried apt-move sync, but nothing appears to happen. This could mean that either the packages used during installation found it's way into my repo without my knowing, or apt-sync isn't the option I'm after. While I can't remember the exact error message when trying to use the local repo as the repo of choice during debian installation, I seem to recall it stating that I was missing a Contents..gz file. Apt-move documentation doesn't appear to cover this file, or how to generate such a file. What is essentially considered a valid server? What structure is required? -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
