I'm trying to install Debian on an eeepc 901 from a usb stick.

When I get to installing the base system the following appears:

Debootstrap error:
Release file signed by unknown key (key id  xxxxxxxxxxxxx.

Is there any way round this? Should I use the standard debian iso image
instead of the one for the eeepc?

This is major gotcha because of course I've now reformated the disk in
order to install Debian so I can't go back!

Anthony
