etch mirrors, ppc, cannot find release file

[stefan peterson <setpet-5@student.ltu.se>]

hi

I've run into some problems trying to install etch beta 2 (netinstall). 
after configuring my network, I am asked to choose a mirror and then it 
starts searching for the release file on that mirror. thing is, it never 
finds the release file. I have tried all of the swedish mirrors listed, 
some danish, some german and some US ones. no success. I've done the 
configuring over and over again, plus it works just fine with the sarge 
installer, so I am positive the problem is not me configuring the 
network improperly.

I don't think it would matter, but the sarge installer names my ethernet 
"eth1: FireWire ethernet" and the etch installer names it "eth1: 
ethernet or fast ethernet"

thanks in advance
