I am trying to upgrade to Debian 2.0 via ftp. I ran the autoup.sh script and everything was fine. Then I fired up dselect to update all my packages. That is where everything fell apart. I selected all the packages in dselect that I wanted but it errored everytime dselect tried to get one of the packages. I hit ctrl-c and now when I go in to dselect it shows all the packages as being installed already. My questions are:
1) How do I get dselect to stop showing the required packages that I need to update as already being installed? 2) What are the settings that I need to use in dselect to get the packages that I need below is my dselect configurations?
