Dne, 18. 11. 2009 00:43:05 je Fred Zinsli napisal(a): > I think you may be overcomplicating things: IIUC, you *can install the base system* without specifying any mirrors. Why don't you just do that then? IIRC, that's actually *not* without mirrors -- it's just the default US servers the installer defaults to. Once you have the base system, you just fire up Synaptics Package Manager and select "Repositories" in one of its menus (it's the second menu from the right, next to the "Help" menu). You then just tick (enable) all four options. The package manager should default to the US mirrors. While you're at it, you may also disable (untick) your CDROM on the second tab and tick (enable) both types of updates on the third tab. The only thing I can image could go wrong is that your nearby mirrors are having some glitches at the moment. For the time being, I would stick to the default (if perhaps slowish) US servers and postpone troubleshooting to a later day. -- Regards,
