By default D-I will put testing in your sources.list so if you pointed apt to /debian-pure64/ you get sarge, if you pointed it to /pure64/ you get sid. > 2.

Depends on what libc6 you have, which depends on the date you've gotten the image. You do not have to downgrade libc6 for any reason but that libc6-dev depends on an equal version of libc6. So when installing libc6-dev you might have to downgrade libc6 to match, apt-get will tell you. > 3. What is the difference between installations from sarge and sid >netinst iso. Hmm, good question.

The curent amd64 is SID, SARGE, TESTION and UNSTABLE After the release of SARGE (without amd64) the amd64 Architekture has officially TESTING/ETCH and UNSTABLE/SID but the current debian-installer will point to SARGE/STABLE which IS a symling to TESTING/ETCH. > 2.

Sorry, this is my fault I think. The file on Alioth is 18MB short of what it should be. Must have missed rsync dying on the upload. I should add an md5sum check after the upload to my script. sarge-amd64-netinst.iso 118516672 88% 15.46kB/s0:16:46 Try again in a few minutes.

If cat can't read it then it is broken. I rebuild it and checked the packages files. Only change should be the D-I image being rebuild overnight. d2c37750d57c7bb315998c97b05ca6fc sid-amd64-netinst.iso MfG Goswin -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
