You need an index.txt file that lists the available files in "ls -ln" format. Otherwise the installer doesn't know what files are there. I ran into the same problem when trying to install using sets from a local machine on my home network. The installer would have to be much more complicated to parse the automatically generated HTML that each web server generates. --Kurt
