Bug#142420: Network install description is incomplete



Package: install-doc
Version: 3.0.23

This section of the manual hasn't been completed, and is quite unhelpful if you are trying to do a network install. Suggestions of how to use a proxy, what the server path should look like, what protocols are acceptable (http, ftp?), and how to use a local mirror would be useful.

---------------
7.3 Network

Select the ``network'' option, and then tell dbootstrap the URL and path to the Debian archive. The default will usually work fine, and in any case, the path part is probably correct for any official Debian mirror, even if you edit the server part. You may choose to pull the files in through a proxy server; just enter the server ...this sentence isn't finished...
---------------

Cheers,
Andrew Greig
