Comments/Problems:

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

Doing a netinstall starting from cd...

The distro "wheezy" did not appear to be supported on ftp.us.debian.org 
and mirror.cc.columbia.edu.  The apparently relevant message on VT4 contains:

mirror does not support the specified release (wheezy)

I searched the D-I mail archive for some kind of hint as to which mirror 
I should be using and/or how to specify it -- to no avail.

Which mirror should I be using.... what did I do wrong...
and where should I have looked, please?
