Thank you for you quick answer.
So, It is a known bug.
I though also to modify the cp to be blind to the '-L' option. 
But I don't succeeded to do that.

Finally, I solved my problems with the experimental woody boot disks of
 ftp://134.2.15.134/boot-floppies/disks-alpha
related to the URL

All seems working now.
