Re: Where are the images for alpha?

[Harald Simon <harald.simon@luebeck.netsurf.de>]

Excuse me, the explanation within my question was to short. I tried to get
the woody images (testing) running. This is the first time I will use debian.
So I did follow the installation manual. But the description within the manuell
are not fully understandable to the fact, that the source of the basic system
is not written down. Otherwise, other user did install the system. But how?

I have another thread open within the mailing list for debian on alpha to
the same topic. I will at first follow that one. If I have no access I will
come back.

Thanks for all so far
