Nope, I was trying to install etch, what I say is tat I was using sarge
 and wanted to upgrade my system (apt-get dist-upgrade gave me some
 problems) trying to say that my software worked right with the earlier
 version of debian.
Now I'm installing sarge and will try again doing the apt-get
 dist-upgrade to get etch.
Thanks for the response.

Did you tell the installer to install Sarge (it is not entirely clear from
your last comment if you did)? If so, that is not supported currently so
that would explain the error.
