Some particulars of my system:
Say, are you talking about the installation step 'installing the base system'? I never managed to get those served through my apt-proxy, either. If anyone ever has, please tell me how. The proxy serves any apt-get requests good enough (though while I'm at it, I'd like to complain about the long latency times). Just for the fun of it, I just tried it manually: [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ wget http://zwerg:9999/main/dists/woody/main/disks-i386/base-images-current/basedebs.tar --03:17:15-- http://zwerg:9999/main/dists/woody/main/disks-i386/base-images-current/basedebs.tar => `basedebs.tar' Resolving zwerg... done. Connecting to zwerg[192.168.1.1]:9999... connected. HTTP request sent, awaiting response... 404 Unknown extension. 03:17:16 ERROR 404: Unknown extension.. By the way: how does apt-get catch the files? Until now, I thought it calls wget. But then I noticed that I first had to get wget myself in order to run my little test. cu, Schnobs -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
