Hi,
Sorry for disturbing again,
I can't create a local mirror, I tryed many and many times .
Help please
Here is what I have done:
I create a local mirror for lenny ( just to test so I mirrored contrib i386 about 200 MB), here is the tree (remove some letter directories):
I used the command
apt-mirror
the file contains /etc/apt/mirror.list
deb
http://ftp.fr.debian.org/debian lenny contrib
###deb-src
http://ftp.us.debian.org/debian unstable main contrib non-free
here is the tree :
debian225:/var/www# ls debian
dists pool
debian225:/var/www# tree -L 3 debian
debian
|-- dists
| `-- lenny
| |-- Contents-i386.gz
| |-- Release
| |-- Release.gpg
| `-- contrib
`-- pool
`-- contrib
|-- a
|-- b
|-- c
|-- x
`-- y
40 directories, 3 files
I used the official netboot lenny thru PXE (dhcp)
evrything is fine at boot from a remote client until the choice of the mirror to complete,
If I choose an official one for example
ftp://ftp.fr.debian.org/ then debian It runs fine
if I choose my local repo :
http://172.19.6.225/ then debian I get the error
bad archive error
the specified archive mirror is either not available or doesn't have a valid Release!!!!!
The file Realease and Release.gpg are exactly the same as files in official repo, I check them !!!
Is there a special thing to add to the installer ?
here is the pxe directory
debian225:/home# tree -L 3 /var/lib/tftpboot/
/var/lib/tftpboot/
|-- debian-installer
| `-- i386
| |-- boot-screens
| |-- initrd.gz
| |-- linux
| |-- pxelinux.0
| `-- pxelinux.cfg
|-- pxelinux.0 -> debian-installer/i386/pxelinux.0
|-- pxelinux.cfg -> debian-installer/i386/pxelinux.cfg
`-- version.info
I add the line to apt.conf ??
APT::Get::AllowUnauthenticated 1 ;
to disable the test authencity (if any pb of Release.gpg ), not sure that it does something, because If I have to
do something I have to do in /var/lib/tftpboot/debian-installer which contains the kernel
cat /etc/apt/apt.conf
I
http://172.19.6.225/debian/
gives correct directory:
Index of /debian
