[CentOS-mirror] New Mirror Setup Questions

[Brandon Davidson]

I would just do this:

$rsync --exclude '/2*' --exclude '/3*' --exclude '/4*' $mirror $local

Also... if you're only mirroring 5, and only really intend it to be for 
your personal use... maybe you'd just be better off syncing from a tier 
2 mirror and keeping it private?
