Package: debian-installer Severity: grave Tags: d-i Justification: renders package unusable
Dear Maintainer, yesterday I downloaded the current Netinstall iso image for stretch to install stretch on a new maschine (Laptop with wired ethernet and wifi) everything worked fine including DHCP configuration. But whe I tried to select a debian mirror i was prompted there was an error due to a network problem or to an mirror lackingg the requested debian version or platform although it was available on that mirror. Tried to find a workaround: it became clear there was some problem with DNS resolition: ping www.google.com failed because of failure to resolve the domain name. On mirror selection I chose to enter the data manually and I entered the IP of my mirror server instead of its FQDN and it worked than. /etc/resolve.conf had the DNS server my DHCP server announces - no idea what went wrong. Thank you very much, everything else worked flawless for me.
