If you want to build an iso of our marvellous work, you need to download packages from our mirrors but you should make folders to organize this a bit.

If you want to build an iso of our marvellous work, you need to download packages from our mirrors. Firstly, make a couple of folders to organize your work:

 

  mkdir -p /root/jigdo/sme9

  mkdir -p /root/jigdo/sme9

and then download all contents, you should take a coffee...This is an example of how you have to do to build a sme9.0beta2, you should take a look to the repository to adapt a new url. This command Line can update rpm in your folder, there is no need to download again which is already downloaded.
