The full Fedora 8 install tree is 88GB, including the ppc arch and
debuginfo packages, which you may not need. *If only carrying i386 and
x86_64, and no debuginfo, it's 39GB.
The updates tree for Fedora 8 is another 47GB including ppc and
debuginfo, 16GB if not.
The releases tree changes only every 6 months (excluding test
releases). *The updates tree should be synced daily.
Budgeting 200GB for Fedora 9 is not too much, especially as we've been
growing the releases over time. *I expect the full install tree to be
120GB, and over time the updates tree will grow as it has with Fedora
8.
We have no public mirrors registered for Sri Lanka, and would
appreciate having some. *We have only 2 public mirrors in India
(presumably where your users are pulling from today).
yeah,
We I am planning proposed to www.sltidc.lk for a public mirror.*
As for bandwidth required, we recommend no less than 10Mbit/sec, and
prefer 100Mbit/sec or higher if available. *Often times educational
networks will have even higher available bandwidth inside a single
university or between universities.
Now all major universities are connected to LEARN network (University VLAN ) via a Optical Fiber having a bandwidth of at least 10Mbps.
And hope to host internal mirror at one of the University and others can sync from that.
