Re: NSLU2 Install problems with 4.0r2
Hi,
Following up on my previous posting, I've got the /var/log/syslog off
the slug from my failed install. I've put it on google docs at:
http://docs.google.com/Doc?id=dhg5vq6x_73dbsv3ggs
The relevant lines towards the end seem to be:
"Dec 29 21:34:12 base-installer: Err http://ftp.uk.debian.org etch Release.gpg
Dec 29 21:34:12 base-installer: Could not connect to
ftp.uk.debian.org:80 (1.0.0.0), connection timed out
Dec 29 21:34:12 base-installer: Reading package lists...
Dec 29 21:34:12 base-installer: Failed to fetch
http://ftp.uk.debian.org/debian/dists/etch/Release.gpg Could not
connect to ftp.uk.debian.org:80 (1.0.0.0), connection timed out"
...followed by subsequent failures to authenticate packages.
>From my laptop going through the same ADSL router I can get to
ftp.uk.debian.org:80. Have I got something set up wrong in my slug's
network? Any idea how I could debug? I *think* I'm setting up the
slug by DHCP. I can obviously SSH into the slug from the same
192.168.1.x network.
Cheers,
Dave.
Thanks,
Dave.
