As Guy says, Wait a few days before downloading. Things are not yet (IMHO) completely fixed _everywhere_ or at best slightly confusing. To make it clear, and as Guy announced, the new boot set is: >Changes from Debian-1.1.1 are: > base-1.1.0-14 > boot-floppies-1.1.1-10 > boot disks 1996-07-14 > kernel-headers, kernel-image, kernel-source 2.0.6 > xosview 1.3.2-4.11996-07-: Please, in case you're in doubt, remember: The 1.1.2 is under the name 1996-07-14 and not 1996_7_14 (this last is the one that since 2 weeks ago under buzz-updates/ without being stable/ or friends being properly linked to it). The files corresponding to the announced 1.1.2 release are time-stamped on Friday or Saturday 27 (opppps! and even today...I am looking at them right now... As I thought somebody was fixing things not so long ago now) here is what I see _now_ ftp://ftp.debian.org/debian/buzz-fixed/disks-i386/ Up to higher level directory .message Sun Jul 14 14:18:00 1996 Symbolic link 1996-07-14/ Sat Jul 27 00:48:00 1996 Directory 1996_6_16/ Sat Jul 27 00:48:00 1996 Directory README Sun Jul 14 14:18:00 1996 Symbolic link current Sat Jul 27 00:48:00 1996 Symbolic link install.html Sun Jul 14 14:18:00 1996 Symbolic link make-floppies Sun Jul 14 14:18:00 1996 Symbolic link special-kernels/ Sat Jul 27 00:48:00 1996 Directory And for those of you who need the special kernels (look at the config-[0-5] files ) ftp://ftp.debian.org/debian/buzz-fixed/disks-i386/special-kernels/ boot1440_2.0.5-0.bin Sat Jul 27 00:48:00 1996 Symbolic link boot1440_2.0.5-1.bin Sat Jul 27 00:48:00 1996 Symbolic link boot1440_2.0.5-2.bin Sat Jul 27 00:48:00 1996 Symbolic link boot1440_2.0.5-3.bin Sat Jul 27 00:48:00 1996 Symbolic link boot1440_2.0.5-4.bin Sat Jul 27 00:48:00 1996 Symbolic link boot1440_2.0.5-5.bin Sat Jul 27 00:48:00 1996 Symbolic link config-0 Sat Jul 27 00:48:00 1996 Symbolic link config-1 Sat Jul 27 00:48:00 1996 Symbolic link config-2 Sat Jul 27 00:48:00 1996 Symbolic link config-3 Sat Jul 27 00:48:00 1996 Symbolic link config-4 Sat Jul 27 00:48:00 1996 Symbolic link config-5 Sat Jul 27 00:48:00 1996 Symbolic link kernel-image-2.0.5...

Wait a few days a download the new ones. I heard and noticed that 2.0.0 had some buggy kbd but maybe some other important things were broken in it (refer to Changelog and _ask_!) As far as I am concerned, I will wait a few days before upgrading _anyway_. Thanks for the job folk of Debian. A suggestion (or a wish): it would be nice if _all_ the Debian releases, were announced through the debian-announce and comp.os.linux.announce Happy hacking! Lazaro P.S. If you insist I can prepare a longer posting with more details but don't panic. Just wait until the mantainers work it out, and I am sure they have done a lot of the fixing as far as the tree structure is concerned. Notice that the opening message when pointing your browser to ftp.debian.org/debian has been modified last friday. As I write this PS ls-lr.gz is not accessible. It's yesterdays version (with the fixes done today not reflected in it) so by the time you read this you can maybe see the new one and just forget all my commments... I hope. ______________________________ Reply Separator _________________________________ Subject: Debian 1.1.2 is Released Author: debian-user@lists.debian.org at cclink Date: 27.07.96 05:59
