Hi I'm installing (actually reinstalling) Debian GNU/Hurd on a vm and I've
encountered a chroot error. I'm using the 2011-07-21 net-installer and while
downloading the base packages, I noticed that it wasn't able to download one
package. I don't remember the exact name, but I think I remember the letters
"lib" & "c" and the version number "0.3". Anyway, instead of continuing, I
selected to "Go Back" when the error popped up about not being able to
download this package, and the installer seemed to keep going from the
current spot. But when it started to install the retrieved packages, I got
this error:

debootstrap: chroot: can't execute '/usr/lib/hurd/setup-translators': No
such file or directory

Any ideas? Should I restart the whole installation? If I do, I'll be more
observant about any packages that fail to download. Or is this another
problem not related to any missing packages. Or when I selected to Go Back,
would the installer have downloaded all the packages? For now I'm going to
save the vm state until I know how to proceed. Thanks.
