linux on mac problem
I tried several times to install the base system using the basedebs.tar. It
keeps hanging every time.
I also tried doing the HTTP download because I do have a ethernet card and
internet connection.
It fails every time on the Packages.gz file. It says it is corrupt. I am
leaving the default location (http://http.us.debian.org/debian).
Does anyone know of another place I can try do download from?
As an alternative I do have a web server her on my LAN. I tried expanding
the basedebs.tar file to a folder and pointing a web site to it. I was told
by the install on the mac that the Release check failed. I am guessing the
folder structure is different in the basedebs.tar than if you download.
Can someone tell me a way to build the folders and files on my own server?
Maybe that would work.
Any ideas at this point would be great.
