Hello Steve My apologies too. I met several bugs with our Windows FTP server and z/VM ftp server. Now everything is resolved at work to test in the "real" world.
I used the very last installer from the beta version and here is what i received in the BusyBox log: Sep 14 10:42:07 choose-mirror[378]: DEBUG: command: wget -q ftp://192.200.2.196/debian/dists/oldsta$ Sep 14 10:42:07 choose-mirror[378]: DEBUG: command: wget -q ftp://192.200.2.196/debian/dists/stable$ Sep 14 10:42:08 choose-mirror[378]: DEBUG: command: wget -q ftp://192.200.2.196/debian/dists/testin$ Sep 14 10:42:09 choose-mirror[378]: DEBUG: command: wget -q ftp://192.200.2.196/debian/dists/unstab$ Sep 14 10:42:10 choose-mirror[378]: INFO: mirror does not have any suite symlinks Sep 14 10:42:10 choose-mirror[378]: DEBUG: command: wget -q ftp://192.200.2.196/debian/dists/unstab$ Sep 14 10:42:11 choose-mirror[378]: WARNING **: mirror does not support the specified release (unst$ Sep 14 10:42:14 main-menu[258]: (process:372): wget: bad response to RETR: 550 command fails; LINK command returned 109; directory remains BFS: /../VMBFS:DWSYS:FTPSERVE/ Sep 14 10:42:14 main-menu[258]: (process:372): wget: bad response to RETR: 550 command fails; LINK command returned 109; directory remains BFS: /../VMBFS:DWSYS:FTPSERVE/ Sep 14 10:42:14 main-menu[258]: (process:372): wget: bad response to RETR: 550 command fails; LINK command returned 109; directory remains BFS: /../VMBFS:DWSYS:FTPSERVE/ Sep 14 10:42:14 main-menu[258]: (process:372): wget: bad response to RETR: 550 command fails; LINK command returned 109; directory remains BFS: /../VMBFS:DWSYS:FTPSERVE/ Sep 14 10:42:14 main-menu[258]: (process:372): wget: bad response to RETR: 550 command fails; LINK command returned 109; directory remains BFS: /../VMBFS:DWSYS:FTPSERVE/ Sep 14 10:42:14 main-menu[258]: INFO: Menu item 'download-installer' succeeded but requested to be $ Sep 14 10:42:14 main-menu[258]: DEBUG: resolver (libc6-udeb): package doesn't exist (ignored) Sep 14 10:42:17 main-menu[258]: INFO: Menu item 'di-utils-shell' selected Thanks Alain Expéditeur: Steve McIntyre < [email protected] > Date: 8 juillet 2012 01:30:21 HAEC Destinataire: Alain Benvéniste < [email protected] > Cc: "J.A.

Hi Alain, Apologies, I've been busy and unable to look at this for a while. Digging down all the way, it seems that nobody ever set things up properly in debian-cd for the s390 installer udebs to be installed. Next level up, that means that no Packages.gz is generated for the installer udebs -> so not mentioned in the Release file. I'm looking at fixing this now... I have a fix committed now, which *hopefully* should do the right thing now. Alain, on Monday when the next full weekly build of testing happens could you please test the s390 CD to check that the installer works for you? If so, then I'll be able to apply the same fix to the Squeeze code. -- Steve McIntyre, Cambridge, UK. [email protected] "We're the technical experts.
