I overlooked your mail. You try to reach http://ftp.debian.org/dists/ but the right path is http://ftp.debian.org/debian/dists/ /dists/ is a very old path, working on the old ftp.d.o backend, but that will not be kept in the future. Your sources.list should look like: deb http://ftp.debian.org/debian/ squeeze main non-free Or better, select a mirror closer to you in http://www.debian.org/mirror/list deb http://ftp.it.debian.org/debian/ squeeze main non-free -- Simon Paillard -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-www-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
