Setting Up Local Ubuntu Repositories


I am currently trying to mirror the ubuntu archives Hoary without amd64 and ppc
packages.

Has anybody else tried to do this. Does anybody know how
big the main,mulitverse,universe packages will be on my system.

I estimate about 40GB but it could be well over that.

Any information will be much appreciated


Antwarrior

p.s command i used was something like

wget -c http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu -X /bigfile -R *_amd.deb,*_ppc.deb

In Gnome or whatever GUI you're using, run

gksudo synaptic

On the menu, go to Settings>Repositories

You can add all the universe repositories without knowing URLs

You misunderstand. I want to set my repositories so that my source.list file
will include entiries with http://10.0.0.3 . ... instead of http://archvie.ubuntu.com

So if anyone can give me any tips would be nice :-)
