Don't know if there's an archmirror script available, but I use an rsync script that runs once every two hours to synchronize my FTP with archlinux.org's FTP. Such a script could be used on your laptop at the university, when you get home, just mount the laptop via NFS and use file:///mnt/arch as repository and it installs from your local mirror without problems like it would do with regular FTP. > > _______________________________________________ > arch mailing list > [email protected] > http://www.archlinux.org/mailman/listinfo/arch _______________________________________________ arch mailing list [email protected] http://www.archlinux.org/mailman/listinfo/arch
