Here's what I'm adding to the wiki, you may find it helpful.

'''NOTE''' Using a full mirror, or a mostly full mirror is best practice. You should only use a partial mirror if you absolutely must (e.g. due to disk constraints) and realize that it is unsupported.

  • Create a mirror of the Debian archive for Apt === ==== Option 1: Using debmirror ====

Frans Pop has created a wrapper script for this which is [http://alioth.debian.org/~fjp/debmirror/ available from alioth]. A README explains how to use it. This is the preferred approach.
