Nightmare install continues: packages not verified
Greetings --
After booting with debian-31r0a-i386-netinst.iso I run into this during
base install -- the first package fails verification:
ââââââââââââââââââââââââ⤠Iâ⤠[!!] Install the base syst ââ

âââââââââââââââââââââââââ
(The neat thing with this installer is the network console -- very nice
work.)

There's nothing about the base install in /var/log/messages, in fact the
base install generated no new messages. Lefover from the partitioning,
however, is this:
# cat /var/log/messages

These errors are left after the partitioning. I've tried deleting the
partitions and recreating them, or leaving the partitions from the
previous boot and just assigning them to /boot and /root -- here's the
table:
# df
Filesystem 1k-blocks Used Available Use% Mounted on
tmpfs 102400 27944 74456 27% /
/dev/cdroms/cdrom0 110880 110880 0 100% /cdrom
4806936 3548 4559200 0% /target
/dev/ide/host0/bus0/target0/lun0/part1 45130 13 42709 0%
/target/boot
Whatever I do I get the file descriptor error, which appears to prevent
the base-install.
Incidentally, if you define a fixed ip and then switch to network
console, selecting a Debian mirror fails. You have to use dhcp.
