lost sources.list file during atempted upgrade



Hello,
   I'm a newbie to Debian Etch but not new to Linux in general.
I was reading the Debian Reference doc section 5.2 going to upgrade from i believe the terms are Etch Stable to testing. I did a
cp -f sources.list sources.list.old
and later discovered that both files were of zero length. I assume i have a problem? I was using an http retrieval method, the installer said http was less prown to errors so i went with it. And the mirror i was using was osuosl.org. During the initial install i was asked about what types of software i'd like, i selected all of it, from memory that's contrib, non-free, stable, security, there's probably more. How can i regenerate my sources.list file and then proceed with my upgrade to testing?
Thanks.
Dave.
