Ubuntu autoinstall via Cobbler Preseed.


Hi All,
I have manged to get Ubuntu Server working fine using Preseed and booting from a DVD to autoinstall.

However when I boot from Ubuntu from Cobbler it request's for a Ubuntu Archive Mirror, now the situation is I don't have much bandwidth/downloads to use apt-mirror, debmirror or apt-cache to Mirror a Ubuntu Archive, so I was wondering has anyone created a Ubuntu Archive Mirror from the Local Ubuntu Server DVD ?

As from what I have seen Cobbler only convert's live iso's to be bootable, I don't really see a way to boot a full Ubuntu DVD via cobbler in a network book environment , and also because a local apt repo is not a Ubuntu Archive Mirror this is ruled out.

Any suggestions, thoughts? Thanks
