NAME
jigit - Easy CD download tool
SYNOPSIS
jigit
<distribution>
DESCRIPTION
jigit will automatically download the files needed to create a
Debian/Ubuntu CD, using as many files available locally as possible
before downloading any that are missing.
Configure jigit by editing /etc/jigit.conf or $HOME/.jigit.conf. The
two settings that matter are:
HOST
The base URL of the jigit update site.
TMPDIR
Where jigit should store its temporary files. These may take up a LOT
of space!
HOW IT WORKS
jigit will download a configuration file from the remote host, along
with jigdo and template files. It will scan your machine for any of
the files it requires (e.g. in the apt cache), including any old
CDs that you may have - simply tell it where to look when it asks.
If any files are missing, jigit will download them. Once all files
are available, jigit will build a new ISO image to match the one you
would have downloaded.
