How about [1]?
/-------------------
See http://www.debian.org/ for information about Debian GNU/Linux.
This FTP site is a repository for old debian releases. For new releases
please see ftp://ftp.debian.org/debian/.
Releases are stored by their codenames under the dists/ directory.
woody is Debian 3.0
potato is Debian 2.2
slink is Debian 2.1
hamm is Debian 2.0
bo is Debian 1.3
rex is Debian 1.2
buzz is Debian 1.1
No binaries, only source, are available for rex and buzz.
If you are using APT the relevent sources.list entries are like:
deb http://archive.debian.org/debian-archive/ hamm contrib main non-free
or
deb http://archive.debian.org/debian-archive/ bo bo-unstable contrib
main non-free
\-------------------
E.g. [2] contains
Index of /dists/woody/main/binary-i386
[ICO] Name Last modified Size
[DIR] Parent Directory -
[ ] Packages 01-Jan-2007 21:30 6.2M
[ ] Packages.bz2 01-Jan-2007 21:30 1.3M
[ ] Packages.gz 31-May-2005 22:25 1.7M
[ ] Release 31-May-2005 22:55 95
etc.
HTH, good luck!
