Image version: <Fill in date and from where you got the image>   12-26-2005  "Sarge" s390 ftp directory
                                                                  
Date: <Date and time of the install>                             12-27-2005

Comments/Problems:      Installer was unable to contact any mirror site successfully, kept saying "Mirror site not available
                        or can't find Release file".  I was able to FTP to several sites, however, from another CMS UserID 
                        running in the same z/VM system, using the same TCPIP stack as my Linux UserID was connecting to
                        through an IUCV connection.  The IUCV LINK showed "CONNECTED" from a NETSTAT DEVLINKS command and
                        I could also PING the IP address I gave the installer to use for itself.

<Description of the install, in prose, and any thoughts, comments
      and ideas you had during the initial install.>

The s390-disks don't seem to be ANYWHERE in the "sarge" directories.  in fact, the images for all the platforms don't seem
to be in "Sarge" like they are in "woody".
 
This is very frustrating.

We are closing this installation report for one of the following
reasons:
- it was reported with a pre-lenny version of Debian
  Installer.
- indications in the installation report give the feeling that
  the reported problem waslying in another software, unrelated to
  D-I, which we can't easily identify.
- indications in the installation report suggest that it may have been
  fixed in a more recent version of a D-I component
- it was successful and we forgot closing it..:-)
- it has no information we consider useful


The D-I team is currently in the process of cleaning out the old spool
of installation reports that haven't bene processed yet. 

In case you think that the problem you reported has chances to be
still present, please reiterate your installation test with
a more recent image of D-I, if you're in position of doing this.

You'll find daily builds at
http://www.debian.org/devel/debian-installer. We recommend you choose
the netboot image, in the "daily builds section", then choose to
install "squeeze" when prompted.

If some problems are found, please report them with a new bug sent
against installation-reports.

Many thanks for your understanding and your help improving Debian,
past and present.
