Hi
I have the 7 cd's for ver 3.0 R5 Non-Us Debian. I would like very mutch to set up a repository on one of my servers ( a windows 2000 server ) to ease instalation, as well as for my own education.
Now I have done some things and read the (thick and not easy) dockuments, but if what I did so far is no good I can just erase it and start over.
I am looking for as good as possible step by step instructions for setting up a repository using only the files on the cd's and what ever tools I'll need.
The challinge natuaraly is having (building) the right sources list and Packeges list *NB

Here is what I have done so far:
------
I have copied out all the files from the 7 cd's to one directory, and made it into both a ftp site and a file share, so I can mount the files under linux in order to build the packeges and sources list under linux.
I have kept the exact directory structure of the CD's ( using xcopy to copy ) so that the tree looks somthing like this

Should I now use a scrypt or something to build the lists ( this I have tried, no luck yet)
Please detail your answers ..... I'm on the learing curve here !!
Thanks !
