Say, are you talking about the installation step 'installing the base
system'? I never managed to get those served through my apt-proxy,
either.
If anyone ever has, please tell me how.
The proxy serves any apt-get requests good enough (though while I'm at
it, I'd like to complain about the long latency times).
Just for the fun of it, I just tried it manually:
schnobs@pferd:~$ wget
http://zwerg:9999/main/dists/woody/main/disks-i386/base-images-current/basedebs.tar
--03:17:15--
http://zwerg:9999/main/dists/woody/main/disks-i386/base-images-current/basedebs.tar
=> `basedebs.tar'

By the way: how does apt-get catch the files? Until now, I thought it
calls wget. But then I noticed that I first had to get wget myself in
order to run my little test.
