Another way: # Would you like to add another source?[y/N] y # # URL [http://http.us.debian.org/debian]: file:/data/deb-mirror/non-US # # Please give the distribution tag to get or a path to the # package file ending in a /. The distribution # tags are typically something like: stable unstable frozen non-US # # Distribution [stable]: frozen/non-US # frozen/non-US does not seem to be a typical distribution tag But it works. I think this should be fixed before potato becomes stable. If not it will generate a lot of questions. Fix might be: Those links in non-US, or an example telling to use 'frozen/non-US'. - Jukka
