Where I live there is a Fire Wall. Some people call it Great, but I have other opinions about that. One of the issues is that github access is hit or miss and rawgithub access is throttled to the point of useless. The experience I’ve had with DietPi is that it automatically tries to download from rawgithub, fails, fails again, and complains about not finding the right stuff. I have considered setting up some other networking options, but would prefer if there were a solution available along the lines of the following options:
-
Don’t try to contact the outside world unless specifically directed to
-
Try once quickly and don’t complain about failure
-
Mirror site/s for downloads
I’m open to options…
Thanks
