Since we are using debootstrap for the woody base system install, this bug is being re-assigned to debootstrap. After looking at debootstrap and not seeing any obvious space checks I tried to debootstrap to a floppy. It fails. root@ruff:/# debootstrap woody /floppy/ http://ftp.debian.org/debian/ trying to get http://ftp.debian.org/debian//dists/woody/Release trying to get http://ftp.debian.org/debian//dists/woody/main/binary-i386/Packages.gz gunzip: /floppy///var/state/apt/lists/ftp.debian.org_debian__dists_woody_main_binary-i386_Packages: No space left on device root@ruff:/# I don't know if later debootstrap parses the Packages files to see if there is room for the base. If so then the above failure may be something we can live with as most people won't be trying to bootstrap onto something that can't fit the Packages file. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
