Implementing it would require udebs for all the GeoIP related packages and a Debian-hosted service to provide public IP address information to the installer for folks without a public IP address. > Is this any different from GNU/Linux?

Despite being unofficial services, I have been using both. First cdn.d.n and then http.d.n. http.d.n had some issues due to apt bug #616064, The apt bug is still open but Raphael added mirror checking code that drops mirrors automatically when they are problematic wrt #616064. I think it is well past time they became official services. Especially the mirror checking code on http.d.n should be replacing the existing mirror checking code. > This sounds familiar.

The command was downloading a Release file and grepping it for Suite| Codename and comparing that to wheezy. That doesn't involve GNU/kFreeBSD specific files at all. The Release files are per-suite so unless the mirror chose a mirror without wheezy everything should be fine. I thought http.d.n knew about Release files and suites and stuff so I'm a bit surprised this is possible. > Ahhh this is really cool.

I guess that is limitation with the device qemu/kvm emulated? -- bye, pabs http://wiki.debian.org/PaulWise
