I am installing the Debian etch 4.0 r0 onto HP machines through network install (PXE boot with DHCP/tftp). Everything goes alright until it (netboot d-i) tries to fetch the "Release.gpg" file from the mirror which is just another machine running sarge in a LAN. In reality, the ISO (DVD) that I have mounted at the HTTP mirror does not have any "Release.gpg" file in the specified directory. The path is: wget "debian/dists/etch/Release.gpg" DISCLAIMER: This message (including attachment if any) is confidential and may be privileged.
