When using a DVD as installation source, there is no need to setup external mirrors and _specially not_ at install time. You better install the base system with a small set of selected packages and let the installer finishes. Afterwards, you can install additional packages or perform an update. And that approach is valid for any distribution, not just Debian. Greetings, -- Camaleón -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
