hi foklks,

 I'm doing a multi-system install of ubuntu in a classroom with no
internet access; I would like to do an instant hoary --> breezy update
from a locally-networked drive in the classroom.  I'm working with all
donated equipment so my hard drives are mostly pretty tiny (6 gig
range) and I am wondering how many of them I'll need to mirror the
various repositories properly (this will be compiled debs only,
obviously, no deb-src!).  

I imagine there's an easy way to find this out but can't see it in my
google searches...

anyway thanks,
matt

ps , am currently off-list, would appreciate a cc (a bit overloaded
and moving ocmputers, need to manage everything in the horrible
proprietary webmail format my ISP uses!).
