Hi,

I installed the Armel port using
http://armel.applieddata.net/developers/linux/eabi/armel-root-fs.tar.bz2

Some how there seems to be problem with accessing
"deb http://armel-debs.applieddata.net/debian sid main" through my proxy
server.
I always get the following error when doing 'apt-get update'
----
Ign http://armel-debs.applieddata.net sid Release.gpg
Hit http://armel-debs.applieddata.net sid Release
Err http://armel-debs.applieddata.net sid/main Packages
 Bad header line

debs.applieddata.net_debian_dists_sid_main_binary-armel_Packages) - stat
(2 No such file or directory)
W: You may want to run apt-get update to correct these problems
E: Some index files failed to download, they have been ignored, or old ones
used instead.

But it is possible for me to wget the required .deb and install it with
dpkg.
(* It is not possible for me to effect the settings of the proxy server )

I am successfull in debootstrap from
http://armel-debs.applieddata.net/debian.
But as before I get the same errors when I do "apt-get update"

I tried debootstrap/cdebootstrap from the other mirrors (?) like
http://ftp.gnuab.org/debian
http://ftp.de.debian.org/debian-kfreebsd
http://www.gtlib.gatech.edu/pub/gnuab/debian
But was somehow not able to do it.

These mirrors (?) don't seem to have all the packages present in the
armel-debs.applieddata.net
repository. Things like tzdata and dpkg-dev to name a few.

- Are there any other Mirrors for the armel-debs.applieddata.net repository
?
- Any way to debootstrap from other repositories besides
armel-debs.applieddata.net ?

Any help would be nice :-)

Thanks,
Mohan
