Re: working with debian cd

[Viguier-Just Guillaume <khaeos@khaeos.com>]

Hmm,

I don't know what to think. I never had this problem. debian-cd always 
added packages to the system (sometimes not all of them but it always 
added some).
The only error I can see in your commands is the use of the lists.sh 
script. If you used the script from step 5 of the tutorial, then you 
should use it this way I think:
sh lists.sh /sargecd/pool > 
/usr/share/debian-cd/tasks/debian-installer-sarge

Try that and tell us if it worked.

Guillaume.
