I am not sure but I really would think that if you are going to copy the ENTIRE 
10.04 repository that it would be larger than 40GB, probably closer to 100 GB 
not including any updates and patches that are put in place in the future.

| Thanks for offering to work on the repository.

| I thought I would have free time to set up a repository at work then
| move it to the workshop when the Internet connection was ready. But
| my free time at work evaporated long before we got the Internet
| connection up at the workshop. I still have the 1U server in my IT
| room, and I will bring it to the workshop next Thursday.

| The Supermicro 1U server has (1) P4 2.2 MHz cpu, (1) 40 GB SATA
| drive, FD, CDROM, (2) Intel gigabit Ethernet ports, (2) PS/2, (4)
| USB, (1) VGA, (1) serial. If by your estimate we need a larger hard
| drive, let me know how big. I am reloading Ubuntu Server 10.04 LTS
| on the system now because I forgot the login credentials. I’ll find
| out how much RAM is in the box later.

| Fantastic work everyone! It sounds like things are moving along very
| nicely. I might be able to assist with setting up the repository. I
| had one working several months ago. I don't remember exactly how I
| set it up, but I'm sure it would come back to me quickly :) One
| thing that I do remember is that it is pretty large in terms of disk
| space. I think I was only mirroring binaries (no source) from the
| main and security repositories because universe/multiverse are
| enormous. I don't remember if I tried restricted.
