Currently we use the same set of udebs on the netinst and businesscard CDs. Changing that would take some debian-cd hacking I'd not want to do. So while choose-mirror is nearly useless on the netinst CD, it is necessary for the businesscard. -- see shy jo signature.asc Description: Digital signature

choose-mirror on CD?
What's the purpose of choose-mirror on the netinst CD? I can select a mirror as much as I want, the base system is still installed from CD, I can't access net-retriever anywhere, and in base-config, the previous mirror selection is not taken into account. So why is it there? -- Please do not CC me when replying to lists; I read them! .''`. martin f. krafft <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> : :' :proud Debian developer, admin, and user `. `'` `- Debian - when you have better things to do than fixing a system Invalid/expired PGP subkeys?
