finding files from archives: where?
Hello,
I am a would-be new debian user (using Mandriva now).
I will try to install from the hard disk (can't burn cds).
http://www.debian.org/releases/stable/i386/ch04s05.html.en
Above, they write:
""
Copy the following files from the Debian archives to a convenient location on
your hard drive, for instance to /boot/newinstall/.
- vmlinuz (kernel binary)
- initrd.gz (ramdisk image)
""
The problem is that I can't figure out where to get those files from.
I tried both search boxes, to no avail:
http://www.debian.org/distrib/packages.en-gb.html#search_packages
(trying to install stable/i386).
1) the documentation is clearly not precise enough.
Do I report this as a bug in the same way as I would any other bug from
any .deb package?
http://www.debian.org/Bugs/Reporting
2) where can I get the said files from?
Thanks,
Augustin.
