You're a user of the new -m option if I understood you correctly.
Does it work for you?

What about allowing to specify this in the GUI?  I was mulling over
adding a fourth option to the "Choose A Download Source" dialog:

 o Install from Internet
 o Download Without Installing
 o Install from Local Download Directory
 o Install from Local Mirror Directory

Option 3 is the same as before, but specifying "Download Directory"
to distinguish this from "Mirror Directory".

Good/Bad/Ugly?


Thanks,
Corinna
