Essentially, we propose throwing out all existing task packages, no

We really need to build a new version from cvs. Adam is going to tag the cvs
tree for 2.3.2. This should happen soon, I'm not sure what we are waiting on.
Whatever it is we probably shouldn't be waiting on it. Once it is tagged I'll
build a new set for i386.

No, I'm using the disks marked as current (April 11). I assumed
these were the ones that Dale was asking us to test. If not, is
there a HOWTO on how to make boot floppies from your CVS
server?

I assume you are suing current cvs? I've gotten a somewhat functioning system

Uhm, has *anyone* succeeded to install a machine using the woody boot
floppies? So far, I've just met with utter failure.
Every time I try to install the base system over the network the
machine prints "trying to get package" messages for a whole bunch of
packages, and then returns me to the me

I just wanted to install woody on 2 machines here, and on both the same thing
happened... I guess lilo would be installed with the potato boot disks I was
using before, but with the latest woody boot disks, it doesn't download and

I've installed debian for clustering. My problems were that I couldn't
