Set Debian, Gentoo, and Ubuntu to select the fastest Source

Dear students, in the previous article titled "installation and configuration of Fedora15", we proposed that the "auto-select fastest image plug-in" can be installed on Fedora '. Many other release version users feel that if they are similar to Debian, Gentoo, Ubuntu, and other popular Release versions, they can automatically choose the fastest source.

Dear colleagues, in the previous article "ora 15 installation and configuration overview", we proposed that Fedora can be installed with 'automatically select the fastest image plug‑in '. Many other release version users feel that if they are similar to Debian, Gentoo, Ubuntu, and other popular Release versions, they can automatically choose the fastest source. Today, I will give you a dream. Continue reading.

#1, Debian

Netselect-apt In Debian is a useful plug-in that can help Debian automatically select the fastest image to download and upgrade the software package.

Installation:

Apt-get install netselect-apt

Introduction to netselect-apt parameters:

-F: use an FTP image instead of an HTTP image;

-N: Add a non-free software source to the selected fastest image.

After netslect-apt is used, the source. list will be produced under the Directory, which can be used to replace the currently used source. list

Command:

Mv/etc/apt/sources. list/etc/apt/sources. list. save

Cp $ HOME/sources. list/etc/apt/

Apt-get update

$ HOME refers to your HOME directory. The source. list generated by netselect-apt is under the HOME directory.

#2, Gentoo

Under Gentoo, you can use the mirroselect tool to automatically select the fastest image.

Installation:

Emerge app-portage/mirrorselect

After completion, you can use the following command to automatically select the fastest image:

Mirrorselect-I-o>/mnt/gentoo/etc/make. conf

Or

Mirrorselect-I-r-o>/mnt/gentoo/etc/make. conf

If you select rsync-mirror and find the fastest source server, run the following command:

Mirrorselect-s3-b10-o-D>/etc/make. conf

#3. Ubuntu

Mv/etc/apt/sources. list/etc/apt/sources. list. save

Cp $ HOME/sources. list/etc/apt/

Apt-get update

The fastest Software List generated is under $ HOME.
