Bug#69155: boot-floppies: installer should remember mirror choice
Package: boot-floppies
Version: 2.2.16-2000-07-20
Severity: wishlist
When installing the base system, a dialog asking for a Debian
mirror appears. This dialog seems to be identical to the one
we've already seen (when downloading rescue.bin and drivers.bin).
Unfortunately, that includes the fact that it hasn't been updated
with the mirror information we provided last time!
It's especially tricky, because the dialog starts by showing the
end of the (very long) string, giving the impression that it *is*
using the information you provided earlier; the only way you can
see that it's been reset is to scroll back to the beginning and
check.
