I do like the idea of something modular for sure. Well "modular" in the sense I was using it refers to the "Modular" set of repositories and functionality in dnf which allows packages in those repositories to overlay the regular repositories. It's basically how we can allow sets of conflicting packages to coexist. > I believe I will need the source debug and primary packages to get > started and probably a base ISO image to get things started.

You can do even less if don't want the ISO file or the debuginfo packages: # du -s os 86534556 os But of course it depends on exactly what you want. > What exactly should I look for in the repo if im going to rsync > the 64 bit architecture at this stage? Pick a mirror that does rsync, and grab just the subset of fedora-enchilada that you want. For example: rsync rsync://pubmirror1.math.uh.edu/fedora-enchilada/linux/development/rawhide/E… Just add your usual options and a destination. Of course, you might not be near me so you may want to pick another mirror. That's an installable tree and includes minimal boot images (so you can do a PXE install or set up a VM using just what's in that directory). Stick that on a web server and I believe you have enough to install and update a basic rawhide machine (as long as it's x86_64, of course, and doesn't use the modular stuff). You will of course need to configure the installed system to look at that repository instead of using the global ones. I'm pretty sure for a base rawhide system that's only /etc/yum.repos.d/fedora-rawhide.repo > I saw a swiss mirror and it had the full enchilada? Plenty of mirrors have fedora-enchilada, I think. Just find one that has good bandwidth and latency for you. - J<

However, just the fedora/linux/development/rawhide directory is over 500GB: # du -sk rawhide 534363340 rawhide That includes three architectures. Mirroring the rawhide portion of the fedora-secondary tree would of course be larger. > I am looking at the documentation for private > mirrors and they are not clear on the way forward on how to get this > setup. It depends on exactly what you want. If you just want a local copy of the files that you can configure dnf/yum/whatever to access, then you just rsync the content from some mirror near you, put it some place your client machines can access and configure them appropriately. You don't have to tell anyone about that or configure anything in mirrormanager. If on the other hand you want clients in appropriate netblocks to be pointed to your mirror (as one of the possibilities they receive) when they request the list of mirrors from mirrormanager, then you need to need to tell mirrormanager what to do and what netblock your clients are in. > Is this the right place to ask and seek assistance?

But you have multiple clients, yes? What netblock are they in? That's what mirrormanager needs to know. - J<

Private Mirror

Good Afternoon, I need to setup a private repo for rawhide I was told that is about 200gb. I am looking at the documentation for private mirrors and they are not clear on the way forward on how to get this setup. Is this the right place to ask and seek assistance? Also Im noticing that you require a netblock even for private mirrors. Is this absolutely necessary as my VPS provider gives me a single IPv4 but i can get a whole /64 ipv6 netblock assigned if necessary. Looking forward to hearing back from you. Regards, Jonathan
