Doing a netinstall starting from cd...
The distro "wheezy" did not appear to be supported on ftp.us.debian.org
and mirror.cc.columbia.edu. The apparently relevant message on VT4
contains:
mirror does not support the specified release (wheezy)
I searched the D-I mail archive for some kind of hint as to which mirror
I should be using and/or how to specify it -- to no avail.
Which mirror should I be using.... what did I do wrong...
and where should I have looked, please?
