Hi list,

I tried installing etch today, but the installation of the base system fails to install initrd-tools, lilo and grub, thus leaving the system unbootable.

The package installation fails with

"The following packages cannot be authenticated"

i also tried using different mirrors, but to no avail.

What can i do?

Thanks for any help,

Heinrich



In the install system, hacked /bin/apt-install to invoke apt-get with --force-yes


Heinrich,

This:

APT::Get::AllowUnauthenticated "true";

in /etc/apt/apt.conf

wouldn't do the same thing?

This may well be, i did not know about that. At installation time i would expact this to work "out of the box".

Thanks for the hint anyway, will use it for future installations :-)
