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 On Sat, 2007-07-07 at 03:44 +0200, Enrique Perez-Terron wrote: > On Fri, 2007-07-06 at 21:13 -0400, Roberto C.
