Yeah, but if we manage to borrow a nice temporary server for release, we should be able to have all online within 4 hours of getting the jigdo files.

I'd like to say that we could have a snapshot mirror over here, but we have scalability concerns with the number of inodes on our ftp server. Is there a script around to build a snapshot given a release?

Yes, the default parameter "maxMissing=25" was too small in jigdo-mirror. When I increased it, it worked fine. I managed to build a full set of the pre2 images (except for alpha that is). Richard: Have you made sure that it will never happen that non-US/Contents-i386.gz and main/Contents-i386.gz will be downloaded in the same fetch batch in jigdo-mirror? They have the same name, so wget might overwrite or something. Just tell me that you have thought about it and solved the problem. :) /Mattias Wadenstein -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
