And you simply cannot use "periodic uploads" for daily CD images. Why? Because the udebs used in D-I images must match the udebs loaded from CD later in the installation. If you'd use periodic D-I uploads as a basis for daily CD builds (or network based installs), you will still end up with images that don't work because the two will slowly diverge due to uploads to sid. So: daily CD builds *must* use daily built D-I images. Some occasional and mostly temporary breakage is unavoidable. In a lot of cases (sid just being sid) a problem will resolve itself within a day or two. If a problem persists it simply needs to be traced and solved. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-boot-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
