Re: Server Seems To Be Down
Phil, should the US .jigdo files be copied to newraff or something?

Yes - as you can see, the .template files are also available from http://non-us.cdimage.debian.org/jigdo-area/3.0_r2/jigdo/i386/ However, you need to download both the .jigdo and .template files to a directory and then give the .jigdo filename to jigdo-lite. Otherwise, it will still try to download the .template from us.cdimage.

Re: Make custom minimal install CD
Hi Jacob, I don't know if this is the right place to ask but I hope someone can help me. I've been trying to make a minimal debian installation CD for network installation with a custom 2.4.25 kernel but I haven't been successful yet. I don't claim to be an expert by any stretch of the imagination but you might want to check out: http://oregonstate.edu/~kveton/debian/ which shows you step-by-step how I created a boot CD like this for my needs.

How to create a custom Debian unstable boot CD?
I am in the process of creating a Debian boot CD. Unfortunately, I need to replace the kernel on the CD and I need to add half a dozen packages (most of them meta packages with lots of dependencies and a few custom config files). So I downloaded a Debian unstable CD image with jigdo, and (I am putting it on a 700 MB medium so there is enough space left) added the packages and the new kernel, added the new Packages descriptions to dists/sid/main/binary-i386/Packages and ...Packages.gz, updated the sizes and md5sums in dists/sid/Release, and burned it to a CD-RW. When booting from the CD-RW, I get this error message from the installer: Drive contains non-Debian CD What should I do now? Did I overlook some other md5sum text file I should have updated? Does it make a difference if I put the new packages in contrib instead of main? Thanks, Felix -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble?

Contents-i386.gz files
About 1/5th of the sarge businesscard image, and a fair bit of the netinst iso are taken up by the Contents-i386.gz files. I propose that these be dropped from these smaller images. As I understand it, the reason to include the Contents files is so users with a full CD set, who are on limited bandwidth or offline will have access to it. This is a good thing, and it's small compared to a full CD set. But with the small network install images, it is both relatively quite large, and not very useful, since the user will have a network connection, and will only use their CD for the intitial install. I've also thought that it might be worthwhile to remove the debian-keyring.tar.gz file (also 7 mb) from these images. However, I do not really know how that file is intended to be used. -- see shy jo signature.asc Description: Digital signature
Debian DVD
Hi Iam dueto download the latest Debian release but, before doing so, would like to know if there is, in addition to the 7CD version, a DVD version, which would be more comfortable. If not, is there any plan to make a DVD version of Debian in the future? Thank you Marco

Make custom minimal install CD
Hi List I don't know if this is the right place to ask but I hope someone can help me. I've been trying to make a minimal debian installation CD for network installation with a custom 2.4.25 kernel but I haven't been successful yet. By using the boot-floppies source package I've managed to make a CD that gives me the boot prompt but when the root.bin and linux.bin images are successfully uncompressed the machine freezes and nothing more happens. Is there an easier way to accomplish this using the debian-cd package or does anybody have any idea what I'm doing wrong/missing in my kernel since it wont boot? Cheers, Jacob Vennervald
