I am trying to net install stretch i386 on an EeePC using a wired connection. I
chose my ISP as the mirror, but the installation hangs on "Configure the packet
management tool (APT)" [french text reads "Configurer l'outil de gestion des
paquets (APT)"].
I checked on my regular box that stretch i386 is available at debian.proxad.net
rprice@maria ~ wget --no-verbose
http://debian.proxad.net/debian/dists/stretch/Release -O - | grep -E
'^(Suite|Codename|Architectures):'
Suite: stable
Codename: stretch
Architectures: amd64 arm64 armel armhf i386 mips mips64el mipsel ppc64el s390x
but on the EeePC with Ctl-Alt-F3 I get
~ # wget --no-verbose
http://debian.proxad.net/debian/dists/stretch/Release -O - | grep -E
'^(Suite|Codename|Architectures):'
wget: unable to resolve host address 'debian.proxad.net'
Command « ip address » shows that the EeePC has been assigned the correct IP
address 10.218.0.100, and /etc/resolv.conf correctly points to the router as the
DNS resolver:
~ # cat /etc/resolv.conf
search rogerprice.org
nameserver 10.218.0.1
I am using the same router and the same name server to post this message. Any
suggestion or hint for fixing the installation would be most welcome,
Roger
