Re: Repository address for netinst

That works!

I tried it with jessie-backports as well, and I got:

root@kmac:~# apt update

Ign http://archive.debian.org jessie InRelease

Get:1 http://archive.debian.org jessie-backports InRelease [166 kB]

W: There is no public key available for the following key IDs:

8B48AD6246925553

E: Release file for http://archive.debian.org/debian/dists/jessie-backports/InRelease is expired (invalid since 424d 14h 54min 36s). Updates for this repository will not be applied.


Any clues as to how to deal with that?

Thanks!
Rick

Hi Rick

What about this?
deb http://archive.debian.org/debian/ jessie contrib main non-free

Does it work for you?

Cheers

Hi Gianluca,

Colton (and I) want to use Jessie (Debian 8) because it is the last working Debian version that supports powerpc and ppc64.  Unfortunately, the repo at http://ftp.ports.debian.org/debian-ports/ only has unreleased, unstable, and experimental.  Nothing there that looks like it is usable for jessie.

Adrian's work on getting a "ports" version for Debian 10 is still a work-in-progress and not yet suitable for a "production" machine.  There's a bunch of us helping with the effort, and we are hopeful we can get it going soon.  Big kudos to Adrian for spearheading the effort!

Hi Colton

Have you tried a newer installer image from here?

Then I think you can use this line in sources.list

At least I was using that if I remember correctly

Good day everyone,

I was wondering if someone could please point me in the direction of a repository to use with Debian 8 PowerPC netinst? Due to brittle plastics my iBook G4 is going to be staying with its original CD drive and will not be able to use DVDs.

I would also like to set up my own repository server in the near future and make it available to the public. I am currently gathering the hardware and should be set up sometime next week.

Thank you,

Colton
