I can almost guarantee that if you try and report this bug to debian you

Can you describe the error in one or two sentences?

Can you provide a bullet pointed list of steps required to reproduce the
error?



From my experience, the description should really be accompanied by in form
of a script to reliably reproduce the issue, if at all possible.

If you cannot reproduce it, it cannot be fixed, except in rare simple cases.

I was able ONCE to use netinst.iso with Alcatel Linkzone to install Debian. There seem to be at least two distinct failure modes.

If the Linkzone has not been used to connect to the web since last power up, it WILL fail repeatably.

If it has spent time connected to the web, the install MAY succeed.
Otherwise the error log says the server does not have correct release.
I will have to do some checking to verify that.

I hope to prepare a more detailed report later today.

Thank you.
