Dear raju:

So far so good. Appreciate the explanation. And yes, of course, I changed the name as Root.

But, how does apt-get/Synaptic determine whether a "stable" source is indeed Sarge or Woody? Does it check the database or is the word enough?
sorry. I dont know the answer.

And why can I not add a source that clearly says "sarge" to my sources.list? Sarge is sarge. Right?
You can definitely add that provided it is official debian source. The unofficial repositories can call their repositories whatever they want. What gave you impression that you cannot?
