For several years I have been running approx on a machine in the lan, using it to install and update Debian for myself and friends. I have installed several releases, the last being release 12.2 on this machine.
Because approx "just runs" trouble-free, I have forgotten the details of the installation. But now, trying to install "debian-12.2.0-i386-netinst.iso", I get the error "release not supported" error when I attempt to specify the local mirror (192.168.1.40:9999). RLH
