Hi,
I have already created a three DVD set with the universe, the multiverse
and some other smaller repositories (which I have forgotten right now)
on them. You can add them to your sources.lst using apt-cdrom. Just do
an apt-get update and then the wanted apt-get installs to install
additional software.
These DVDs are only addons to Ubuntu, you cannot install from them, but
install the software you need.
I am still working on getting the current security-repository on a cd,
but I still havent got the time to rewrite my local running scripts :(
Maybe in the next days...
I can send you a set of these DVDs for just the needed shipping and
material (I still need to check what the shipping fee would be).
I have already created these DVDs for x86, PPC and AMD64, so the
question is: What do you need?
Please tell me, what architectures you want to recieve and if you have
another day or two I can rewrite the scripts to add security fixes and
maybe any other repository you need...
Please mail me, if you are interested and I will check the needed
shipping costs.
Greetings from Germany
Michael
