Hello all. I need a offline copy of the wiki because I cannot buy internet and need a copy for home use. I have tried crawling it with wget, and httrack but they both seem to fail at the first page. They copy all other sites just fine... Anyone know if there is a way for me to just download a copy?

I think there was a way to do this, where a full archive could be downloaded.

It's an old issue - wgetting wiki.osdev.org doesn't work without some flags. There was a topic a while ago in that the issue got resolved. What if you go to the wiki and just download it using your browser?
Having Internet is essential - you will have to read a lot of online documentation. How do you get onto the forums right now?
EDIT: found the
topic.

I am on a public wifi hotstop right now. I have a 3 terabyte drive I got on sale and have been archiving everything I may need. I have the entire ubuntu 14.04, 10.10 repos, a ton of arch repos, many websites, anime, etc.
