Why not use an USB-HDD of 20-30 GByte?

You can download a whole release easyly by:

----8<----------------------------------------------------------
wget ${SERVER}/debian/dists/sid/non-free/binary-i386/Packages.gz

gzip <./Packages.gz |grep 'Filename: ' |

    sed "s|Filename: |${SERVER}/debian/|" >./Packages.list

wget -nH -X -i ./Packages.list

----8<----------------------------------------------------------

I have a more complex script for myself but this simpel thing is working.

Thanks, Greetings and nice Day
