I have local mirrors of f9 final, f9 updates and f9 livna. I use lftp to get updates to the repos (though f9 final doesn't change) and I modify the repo definitions in /etc/yum.repos.d to point to the local mirror. For example to get the i386 f9 final repo you can use the following command: lftp -e 'mirror --delete-first --parallel=3 -c -e -v pub/fedora/linux/releases/9/Everything/i386/os/ /spare/fd' 209.132.176.220 Just replace 209.132.176.220 with an appropiate mirror near you. The corresponding repo file has been changed to: [fedora] name=Fedora $releasever - $basearch failovermethod=priority #baseurl=http://download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/fedora/linux/releases/$releasever/Everything/$basearch/os/ #mirrorlist=http://mirrors.fedoraproject.org/mirrorlist?repo=fedora-$releasever&arch=$basearch baseurl=file:///spare/fd/ enabled=1 gpgcheck=1 gpgkey=file:///etc/pki/rpm-gpg/RPM-GPG-KEY-fedora file:///etc/pki/rpm-gpg/RPM-GPG-KEY [fedora-debuginfo] name=Fedora $releasever - $basearch - Debug failovermethod=priority #baseurl=http://download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/fedora/linux/releases/$releasever/Everything/$basearch/debug/ mirrorlist=http://mirrors.fedoraproject.org/mirrorlist?repo=fedora-debug-$releasever&arch=$basearch enabled=0 gpgcheck=1 gpgkey=file:///etc/pki/rpm-gpg/RPM-GPG-KEY-fedora file:///etc/pki/rpm-gpg/RPM-GPG-KEY [fedora-source] name=Fedora $releasever - Source failovermethod=priority #baseurl=http://download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/fedora/linux/releases/$releasever/Everything/source/SRPMS/ mirrorlist=http://mirrors.fedoraproject.org/mirrorlist?repo=fedora-source-$releasever&arch=$basearch enabled=0 gpgcheck=1 gpgkey=file:///etc/pki/rpm-gpg/RPM-GPG-KEY-fedora file:///etc/pki/rpm-gpg/RPM-GPG-KEY If you are getting both i386 and x86_64, there is some overlap and you probably want to use rsync so that you only get hardlinked files once. The size of the f9 i386 repo is a bit over 13GB. The 9GB estimate was close one or two releases ago. -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list
