Apparently, the daily build is failing since jan 17. I did # dd if=net-1440.img of=/dev/fd0 bs=1024 conv=sync; sync and booted from the just created floppy. System booted fine (apart from these error messages: Setting up filesystem, please wait ... kmod: failed to exec /sbin/modprobe -s -k net-pf-1, errno=2 kmod: failed to exec /sbin/modprobe -s -k net-pf-1, errno=2 init started: BusyBox v0.60.5 <...snip...> kmod: failed to exec /sbin/modprobe -s -k net-pf-1, errno=2 invalidade: busy buffer Net4: Unix domain sockets 1.0/SMP for Linux Net4.0. Cannot open template file /var/lib/cdebconf/templates.dat Debian Installer Main Menu ) My nic triggered the tulip module to get loaded, which went fine. It went up after running pump. The menu now read: 1. Configure network hardware 2. Configure the network via DHCP 3. Configure a static network 4. Load installer modules (default) 5. Execute a shell In the menu, I choose the default: Load installer modules. In the presented submenu, I choose ``net-retriever'' (the only choice offered). What I got was: wget: wget -c -q http:///debian/dists/sarge/main/debian-installer/binary-i386/Packages.gz -O /var/cache/anna/Packages.gz wget: : No address associated with name wget: wget -c -q http:///debian/dists/sarge/main/debian-installer/binary-i386/Packages.gz -O /var/cache/anna/Packages.gz wget: : No address associated with name wget: wget -c -q http:///debian/dists/sarge/main/debian-installer/binary-i386/Packages.gz -O /var/cache/anna/Packages.gz wget: : No address associated with name wget: wget -c -q http:///debian/dists/sarge/main/debian-installer/binary-i386/Packages.gz -O /var/cache/anna/Packages.gz wget: : No address associated with name Segmentation fault postinst exited with status 35584 Debian Installer Main Menu It did _not_ ask me to select a mirror; apparently, choose-mirror.postinst was not run. Other remarks: no nano was available from the shell (although support for this was announced). When starting a shell, it complained: /bin/sh: can't access tty; job control turned off and indeed, doing a ping some.host.name was a bad idea: it didn't respond to ^C , I had to force my system to reboot... ;-P .
