Package: installation-reports
Severity: grave
Justification: renders package unusable


When trying to install Debian AMD64 testing (Etch) using the official netinst iso,
the installation process always dies at the "Installing Base System" step saying:

   Failed getting Release file file:///cdrom/dists/sarge/Release

So is impossible to install the system.

My apology for the late response

An older version of the debian-installer/today wiki page.
had this text:

 [18 Jun 06] amd64 CD images turn out to have been broken for a while
             due to a mirroring issue on the CD image build machine.


And meanwhile is it fixed. Please try a new version of debian-installer.

Because I think the problem is fixed, I'm closing this install report.


Thank you for your feedback.
