Good luck

I need to install Jessie powerpc (32-bit) on a G4 powermac. (And
before you ask, yes it needs to be Jessie – just for a couple of
months. Then I will be able to install Adrian’s Sid from Ports.)
But I’m running up against some roadblocks. Any help will be
greatly appreciated!
When the installer gets to the part where I choose a package
repository, I choose to enter the name manually as
“archive.debian.org”. But that fails because it wants the dist to
be “oldoldstable”, which doesn’t exist on the archive repo. If
I could make it use “jessie” instead, things would work fine, but
I don’t know how to tell the installer to do that.
So my first question is: Does anybody know how to force the dist name
to be something other than “oldoldstable”?
OK… I gave up and chose not to specify a package repository. The
install runs to completion with a very minimal configuration. It does
that and reboots fine. Then I log in on the console and edit the
sources.list file to look like this:
DEB HTTP://ARCHIVE.DEBIAN.ORG/DEBIAN/ [1] JESSIE MAIN NON-FREE
CONTRIB
Then, when I do “apt update” I get this:
root@grey:~# apt update

Thanks!
Any suggestions will be greatly appreceated.
