Mmm, indeed, that is a problem listed on : http://wiki.debian.org/DebianInstallerToday [19 Oct 05] secure apt [WWW] won't work with any debian CDs as it cannot validate them; this breaks all CD images except businesscard and netboot mini ISOs. Symptom: failed to install initrd-tools So, maybe try a businesscard iso instead of a netinst, or a more recent netinst, which is rumored to fix this problem. > Anyone knows about an image that works? > > The installing problem: > > The G5 is not mine.

Well, there will be a beta of the etch installer RSN, hopefully it will be ready before you next go, but i can't make promises.

Well, you should have asked online when you where at his place, and would have been able to install directly with the above workaround :) Friendly, Sven Luther -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
