Since my "ultimate goal" is to get a (relatively) clean F21 on my

experimenting using the Heisenbug netinst.iso with a specified repository of

It would be most useful to be able to specify a copy of the repository
on a local HD:
/dev/sdd1/fc21/os - but in the meantime I will have to install over
the net at a more
leisurely pace.
Do you not already mirror anything in Fedora at all locally? If not,
you may think about setting up rsync or something to do that onto a
local server/HD of some time, one that you can always have access to,
via http, ftp, nfs, etc.. You can then set it up to check however many
times a day/week/month you want so it's always up to do.
It does make installs/upgrades/etc..a lot faster and you don't need
internet access while doing it.
This is what I do. The full tree for 19, 20, 21, and rawhide plus
updates-testing is only using approx. 250GB. I don't grab the source or
delta rpms, and I've excluded many of the games. Makes netinstalls a breeze.
