Try putting a slash after debian, as in:

Also, you might try changing the second http to ftp, as above.

If that still does not work, try commenting out the sarge line, and just
leaving the security line, and see if that works (it won't do much
upgrading to your system, but it might give us a clue).

The easiest way to do this is to have gpm (the console mouse driver)
running; then just highlight to copy and middle-click to paste; the
session will look something like this:

The MACs are the same, so it's the same card. This seems odd to me; I
don't know how to explain it. You might run the command "grep -r eth1
/etc/*" to see if eth1 is referenced in any config file under "/etc".
