Hi all,

  I have similar problem.
  The only thing is that instead of installing from DVD, i put the DVD
  images on to a server which loop-back mounts the DVD. I have added 
  the local server address to the sources.list. 
  But on the Etch DVD there is no Release.gpg file.
  Now, how can i avoid the authetication warning without using 
  APT::Get::AllowUnauthenticated 1


 OR
  can i download the GPG keys from the etch website and then have it
  installed in my machine so that i can avoid the authentication 
  warning  ? If so can someone point me to the website and the method
  to import the keys

thanks
