Bug#398455: Bug 398455 Follow-up - /etc/apt/sources.list does not rememember "manually" input entries
Hello again;
This follow-up is to add some aspects (bugs) I had forgotten to include in the
previous installation report (same bug#).
***********************
ADD-ON to previously submitted bug report #398455 (successful DVD
Tasksel/Desktop install with a few caveats);
Titled:
"Success: Etch, DVD binary1.iso, 10-Nov-2006, 'expertgui' method, (possible
rescuegui bug)"
I Forgot to add one --> While I have the full DVD binary-1.iso, when I got to
"manually" choose mirrirs for repos, I naturally added/chose my own (2 which
nicely relooped to allow me to add a 2nd) .. plus I also added the DVD as a
repo source, IIRC ..
..but when I got to the screen that asks about the "netinstall" I unticked the
box (that was ticked already), since I thought most pkgs could be installed
from DVD. And decided, after reading what the actual text displayed about
needing to fetch pkgs from the Interweb, that I didn't need that for the
initial install.
Needless to say; by the time I got booted into the installation, those mirrors
I manually added were *not* listed in /etc/apt/sources.list . Only the CD/DVD
repo and the security repo were there .. bug?
