Sjoerd, can you please try again with a current daily image? There have been some changes and we've not have any other reports of mirror selection failures, so it seems most likely that you hit a bad daily image. If it still fails then please send the full syslog with debconf debugging enabled (gzipped!). Cheers, FJP -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
