Ok. toyed with the idea, got mirror of the CD and installed it. All went well. Ran mirror with modified config file. ------- config ----- # # PACKAGES # # This is the default mirror settings used by my site: # kryten.atinc.com # # adapted from mirror.defaults by Lee McLoughlin <lmjm@doc.ic.ac.uk> # You should be able to use this at other sites.
