I tried the di netinst as I was experiencing strange problems with the Ubuntu dapper installer.
A similar problem that I had with 'Ubuntu dapper' persisted with debootstrap: http://static.natalian.org/2006-05-16/amd64/di-20060516/ When choosing a mirror, how come there is no Korean mirror? There is amd64 on ftp.kr.debian.org When it failed I think (as my notes aren't very clear) it said look at /var/log/debian-installer though there weren't any logs to be found there. Nor on the /target Not sure where I obtained the logs in the end. Later I tried the installer again. This time I wiped out all the partitions on the HP machine. I think an earlier 7G fat32 partition which I'll assume is the "rescue patition" was causing grief. The install worked from a blank hard drive. On the netinst I was too lazy to enter in the IP details and then at the choosing mirror stage, of course it couldn't reach a mirror. The error message then "Bad archive mirror" wasn't really apt. Perhaps a check to see the network is configured first? Not sure. Best wishes, -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
