Floppy/network installation fails: tar Unrecognised file type
Hi,
I just tried the newest daily image (20040216) for debian-installer. I
choose Unstable, because Testing gave some dependency problems in the
past. Everything went fine (DHCP, partitioning, mounting). I selected
'Install base system' and d-i started downloading the packages. But
after downloading I got an error. The messages file only reports:
tar: Unrecognised file type
That's it. Any ideas on what could be causing this problem? I guess it's
a dependency problem (again), but because the information presented to
me is sparse, I can't investigate.
Eric
