| Installation across the network, from an NFS server which is not |
| currently mounted. |
| |
| The server should contain the Packages.gz file from each distribution |
| area being installed (usually main, contrib, non-free, local and |
| eventually non-US) as well as the corresponding binary/*/*.deb files. |
| |
| The easiest way for them to get this is to make a (partial) copy of |
| the distribution site's directory hierarchy, if possible. |
| |
| The contents of the mounted directory may change. Thus it's possible |
| to use this method for installations from a CDROM set. |
