I think he was asking how to switch the source.list file to go fetch
from a server rather than his installation CD set. The answer is of
course easily found by reading documents on the web site in any case.

Try something like this:

deb http://http.us.debian.org/debian/ woody main non-free contrib
deb-src http://http.us.debian.org/debian/ woody main non-free contrib
deb http://non-us.debian.org/debian-non-US woody/non-US main contrib non-free
deb-src http://non-us.debian.org/debian-non-US woody/non-US main contrib non-fre
e

deb http://security.debian.org/ woody/updates main contrib non-free

I guess you could s/woody/stable/ there, I guess I never got around to
it after the release ;-)

Cheers!
