Bug#34691: Broken links in Debian installation guide
Package: boot-floppies
Version: 2.1.9
Section 1.1 'Getting the Newest Version of This Document' of the
document 'Installing Debian GNU/Linux For Intel x86' is held at
ftp://ftp.debian.org/debian/dists/stable/main/disks-i386/current/ch-welcome.html#s-getting-newest-doc
and contains a broken link. The 'Official Install Manual pages' are not
at
http://www.debian.org/releases//i386/install
For the slink release, for example, they are at
http://www.debian.org/releases/2.1/i386/install
Likewise the document's contents page should be at
ftp://ftp.debian.org/debian/dists/stable/main/disks-i386/current/index.html#contents
but the file index.html doesn't exist there.
Ordinarily this mightn't matter much, but the document is linked from
www.debian.org - these bugs are potentially among the first impressions
of Debian gained by those who may be considering installing it.
