I had airwalled [1] updating working on Debian variants (Lubuntu at least) some years ago, and I intend to pursue it again once ascii is out (or if I use the beta).I searched this mailing list and did not find any topical conversation. Is anyone here actively doing such a thing? - I have some old scripts that I borrowed from then-quiet projects, and it all ought to work still. Pretty simple stuff: 1. offline: run offline-script, generate log 2. online: bring offline-script log 3. online: run online-script, referencing offline-log, download packages 4. offline: bring packages, update packages (I don't know my stuff, but I get the impression that if all my tools were broken, I could eventually re-create this process myself.) -- [1] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Air_gap_%28networking%29 This is the sneakernet updating of an offline box: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sneakernet _______________________________________________
On the dev1galaxy forum miroR has written extensively about airgapping. That's all way beyond me but you might find something interesting there.
