===== Local Berryboot repository on network share =====

Instead of letting Berryboot download operating system image files straight from the Internet, it is also possible to have a local repository in your own network.

Steps required:

1) Obtain image files

Download the [[https://sourceforge.net/projects/berryboot/files/os_images/|Operating System image files]] you wish to offer on your local repository from the Internet to your local computer.

2) Put the downloaded files on a Windows file sharing (CIFS) network share

3) In the Berryboot "Add OS" Windows, press the "Network settings" button, go to the tab "repository" and enter the IP-address of your server, and the name of the share, in the format: <code>cifs://1.2.3.4/name-of-share</code>

If no username and password is provided, Berryboot will try to login to the network share as "guest" \\ 
The settings are saved in berryboot.ini on the FAT partition of the SD card.
