I pulled down the images and attempted an install with them.
Both installing the base system through the proxy and through an
internal web server failed. Here are the messages I received
when I tried to use both the proxy and the internal web server.
--
*Proxy*
nf_http_read :: read: Connection reset by peer.
nf_http_fetchfile :: file download failed, HTTP OK not received
--
*Internal web server*
nf_http_fetchfile :: file download failed, HTTP OK not received
--
When I went to check the internal web server logs, I found that
the machine had not even accessed the server once. Unlike the
previous time, when it had erroneously included the web server
ip address in the directory that it was looking for the base
files in, this time there was never a connection established
between the Linux machine and the internal web server.
Hopefully this information helps. If you wish to have me test
another set of images, please let me know and I will test them.
However, if only one or two of the images actually changes, let
me know so I don't have to write all of the floppies over again.
