+Installation from filesystem on a hard disk partition that's not
+currently mounted.
+
+The partition should contain the Packages.gz file from each
+distribution area being installed (usually stable, contrib and
+non-free) as well as the corresponding binary/*/*.deb files.
+
+The easiest way to get this is to make a (partial) copy of the
+distribution site's directory hierarchy, if possible.
