This is a corrected version of my last
message:
Hello All
I'm trying to reinstall Debian onto my Asus that
only has 4 GB internal storage.
I have a CD installer that I downloaded and used to
install it onto an external SD card on that computer a few months
back.
There is not enough storage internally to copy the
installation on the SD card to the 4 GB internal drive.
Now while installing on the Asus from the
installation media, I'm at the point in the installer that it wants the mirror
for the repository.
I select US and then I've tried both the FTP and
the HTTP options and neither work.
I've tried it with and without the Ethernet cable
attached, because I successfully connected to my WIFI at the beginning of the
install, and when the WIFI possibly failed, I tried the Ethernet.
So I've been looking on-line and found a lot of
entries for the sources.list file, but nothing for this part of the
installer.
I am wondering if it is because the version I'm
installing from is 12.something and now I think Bookworm might be using
12.4.
But it tells me I can edit the sources.list in
console 4, but I don't know how to get to a console in the
installer.
If I could skip this part, I would, and just add a
sources.list file later.
I've tried to SSH into it, but that may not be
possible during the install.
Or alternatively, does anyone know how I can skip
this step for now?
It only will back up using escape to the country
selection for the repository.
Thanks
