The network couldn't be configured because I use PPPoE, i managed to configure it after the reboot (this is a known issue, I've read on the webpage). II. The base system didn't install, because: 1. Deboostrap error: no such script /usr/lib/debootstrap/scripts/etch solution: I copied the /usr/lib/debootstrap/scripts/sid to etch 2. Couldn't download: at, exim4, ipchains, mailx, exim4-config, exim4-base, exim4-daemon-light note: the packages aren't on the netinst CD! solution: I removed the packages from the install script 3. Couldn't meet dependencies of initrd-tools: cramfsprogs, dash missing from the install script solution: I added those packages to the install script 4. Couldn't meet dependencies of whiptail and other packages that depend on libslang2 solution: I added libslang2 to the install script III. Apt-setup should ask if I want to add more sources when adding an http source, but instead it just went to the next step(choosing packages to install) solution: I added the local mirrors, and cdroms first,(in this case apt-setup asked me if I want more sources added) and then the http source Note: when I downloaded the netinst CD image yesterday it was the newest, today I see that a new one has been added, I haven't tested that one.
