Example with an usbkey mounted on /media/usbkey. If you want, you can create a CD with this directory and use the CD.
Create the mirror: debmirror -e http -h security.debian.org -r debian-security /media/usbkey/mirrors/debian-security -d sarge/updates -s main,contrib,non-free -a i386 --nosource --postcleanup -p Use it: in sources.list, add 'deb file:/media/usbkey/mirrors/debian-security sarge/updates main non-free contrib' That all. cu. >I have a number of clients using Sarge, who also have dial-up, so >they'll need occasional off-line update capabilities.
