dselect and Packages.gz

[Tony Laszlo <laszlo@gol.com>]

I have installed Debian 2.0 (kernel 2.0.34) from 
floppies and have booted from the hard disk 
after installing all the base.tgz. Do I need 
to install the rest of the packages from the 
old 2.0 archives, or from the current files? 
I searched for 2.0 files and found the following. 

ftp.debian.org        /debian-archive/dists/Debian-2.0


Dselect, however, says it cannot find Packages.gz 
when I instruct it to access the site and directories 
below (or anything other than the current version's 
packages.gz). 
What can I do? 

Thanks.
