woody install on SG Indy IP22 MIPS system

["Gavin Grieve" <ggrieve@ihug.co.nz>]

I don't know if this has been covered before as I've only just subscribed,
but ....

I've got the system booting via bootp() successfully, configuring the
network, can access the http/ftp sites via our incredibly fast 56k dialup ;)
Debian-i386 internet gateway.  It started downloading the base packages and
got to slang1 and fails repeatedly.

Have I done something wrong or is there a simple explanation that i've
overlooked in the joy of setting up my first bootp()/tftp network boot
system.

Any information/pointers/flames would be gratefully appreciated.  Ok, maybe
the flames won't be, but you know what I mean.
