Daren,
The following repository config works fine for me using livecd vc2-2:
system {
package {
repository community {
component: "main"
url: "http://archive.vyatta.com/vyatta";
}
repository etch {
component: "main"
url: "http://http.us.debian.org/debian";
}
}
}
from rootsh, apt-get update && apt-get install mdadm
