Minimal Browser Installation

Usually a browser installation wants to be a subset of genomes compared to the entire UCSC Genome Browser

Instead of the entire rsync of everything mentioned in the Mirror Instructions, a subset of data can be downloaded.

At a minimum you will need the .2bit file or the nib files for the assembly. This is either:

/gbdb/<database>/<database>.2bit
or
/gbdb/<database>/nib/*.nib

Various tracks use other files in this directory. If you don't care about all the tracks, you won't need other files here.

For the genbank sequences, you can check the gbExtFile table for your database to see exactly which files are used by that assembly in /gbdb/genbank/
Extract the "path" column from that table and use that list in a --files-from specification for your rsync.
