kiiwiibiirb Hi, I'd like to mirror KaOS as I really like this distribution and wanna give back to the community, are there any guidelines to mirroring KaOS? Thank you 🙂
demm Hi kiiwiibiirb tahnks for offering a mirror 🙂 really needed since there are really very few.... See this post for instructions: https://forum.kaosx.us/d/1354-hosting-in-czech-republic
kiiwiibiirb demm Following those instructions right now, I'll let you know when it's ready 😃 EDIT: It appears the mirroring process is very slow right now. I'm downloading at 100kb-200kb/s, any reason on what's going on?
demm kaosx.tk is very fast for me locally, but painfully slow for the buildserver in Sweden. So it might be related to location. Maybe try the second KaOS server for initial mirroring? https://repo.kaosx.us/
demm kiiwiibiirb Thanks, will be added to the pacman-mirrorlist package today. Would you like to be added to the Sponsors page, and if yes how? What country is this mirror in (pacman-mirrorlist uses country grouping).
kiiwiibiirb demm So it turns out my crontab doesn't want to work. Is there any other way I can help with distribution? Maybe I can make a torrent of the latest iso image? 🙂
kiiwiibiirb Yes I have, this is the cronjob file: # Edit this file to introduce tasks to be run by cron. ... # KaOS 13 * * * * kiwi /usr/bin/rsync -av --delete-after kaosx.tk::kaos /home/kiwi/public_html/kaos ...
demm Maybe try crontab with: 13 * * * * rsync -av0 --delete-after kaosx.tk::kaos /home/kiwi/public_html/kaos
demm Thanks. It was already added before the weekend: https://github.com/KaOSx/core/blob/master/pacman-mirrorlist/mirrorlist#L25
