Upgrading to Intrepid Ibex With a Local apt-mirror

Geek Page! "A clean install of Kubuntu requires just over 1 GB of packages to upgrade from Hardy to Intrepid, and dragging that much data across the cloud is just painful, I don't care how fast your ISP is.

It's especially painful if you happen to have an apt-mirror server on your own LAN with a full copy of the Intrepid repository."
