More generally, maybe "The selected/detected source is not valid installation media", plus an error like "missing metadata|corrupt media|unreachable host|wrong suite/release/Debian version|et al"? BTW, I've always found that the strings in Debian Installer were sensible, going all the way back to installation from sets of cdroms or floppies, so everyone's doing a great job! :-) Cheers, Nicholas
