Delivered-To: submit@bugs.debian.org
Package: boot-floppies
Version: 3.0.15-2001-10-18
Severity: important
This version of boot-floppies looks for the Release file on a CD-ROM
or mounted medium in the directory /instmnt/dists/woody; however, the
Release file is stored in /instmnt/dists/woody/main/binary-$ARCH.
This may be an issue with the included debootstrap udeb, rather than
boot-floppies per se. The error messages make it hard to tell.
(This may be fixed in .16 [I can't tell], but there is no .16 release
for Intel in the archive...)

Ah... for some reason or another, my partial mirroring script wasn't
picking those Release* files up, and the CD scripts didn't complain
that they were missing. Thanks for the pointer.
