Hi,
.
I need to install debian very often and I was wondering about how you can do it from a local repository. Here is what I have in mind:
.
1._ I would have all needed files on one of these 4.7Gb DVDs (or a local partition, USB mini drive or whatever media)
.
2._ Use knoppix to do a basic debian installation via debootstrap
.
I think, this looks like an easy thing to do, but for some reason, I haven't been able to find a step, by step guide on how to do that.
.
any help, leads, suggestions?
.
thanks
