Bug#42123: specifying paths within archives at boot time

[Richard Kettlewell <rjk@sfere.greenend.org.uk>]

Package: boot-floppies
Version: unknown

At various places in the installation process, one is asked to specify
paths to archives, etc.  In practice one then has to guess exactly
which directory is meant - .../debian/dists/slink, perhaps, or
.../debian, or something else.

It would be very helpful if there could be more explicit directions as
to what one should look for - either by filename or by directory
contents or, ideally, both.  e.g. some text of the form ``the
directory you are looking for is probably called <spong> and contains
the files <foo> and <bar>.''
