Hello, I'm doing an installation from the potato floppy boot disk set dated July 5, 2000. Kernel and modules are installed; plip is configured and I can ping hosts on the Internet by name from VC2.
Over on VC1, the installation scripts are running, and I'm at the stage "Install the Base System". I choose "network" and leave the download url and proxy settings at their defaults (http://http.us.debian.org/debian/dists/potato/main/disks-i386/current and proxy: none). When it tries to fetch the files, I get this message: "nf_http_fetchfile :: http.us.debian.org couldn't be resolved, Host name lookup failure (h_errno=2)." This seems strange, since that host responds to pings on VC2. Does this look familiar to anyone? TIA. -- David Karlin [EMAIL PROTECTED] Powered by Debian GNU/Linux -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
