On a Debian 8 system i did apt-get install jigdo-file jigdo-lite http://cdimage.debian.org/debian-cd/8.2.0/amd64/jigdo-bd/debian-8.2.0-amd64-BD-1.jigdo (It is the first time i do this. Normally i wget netinst ISOs. On the other hand i have possibly too much internal knowledge about the Jigdo format. This might scare away normal user bugs.) When inflating the template it established a 20+ GB file on my hard disk. Now it is busily downloading .deb files and puts them into the holes of the template. Network throughput with http://ftp.de.debian.org/debian/ is about 80 percent of the local maximum. ETA 4+ hours if not Deutsche Telekom cuts the line or many small packages are to be downloaded. > --10:22:42-- > http://debian.mirrors.pair.com/pool/main/a/analog/analog_6.0-20+b2_amd64.deb > => > `debian-8.2.0-amd64-BD-1.iso.tmpdir/debian.mirrors.pair.com/pool/main/a/anal > og/analog_6.0-20+b2_amd64.deb' > Connecting to debian.mirrors.pair.com[216.92.2.148]:80... connected. > HTTP request sent, awaiting response... 404 Not Found > 10:22:42 ERROR 404: Not Found.

Where would I find that? http://atterer.org/jigdo says that "This version is capable of creating DVD-sized images on NTFS partitions (FAT32 only supports sizes up to 4 GB)." It makes this obscure demand: "In case you use WinZip, click on "Extract" and select "Use folder names", don't just drag the files to a directory." Well, if a filesystem can take files larger than 4 GiB, then there is few reason to expect a limit at 22 GiB. Have a nice day :) Thomas
