I did find the .jigdo and .template files for testing netinst amd64,
and I have downloaded them into a folder ~/Debian. But I am unclear
about what to put in for <address of target file>. From a previous
message in this discussion I thought it was
http://cdimage.debian.org/cdimage/daily-builds/daily/arch-latest/amd64/jigdo-cd/debian-testing-amd64-netinst.jigdo.
But that sends me into a loop where it continually asks for an Ubuntu
mirror. Why would the ISO for testing amd64 netinst be on an Ubuntu
server? On the other hand, I am doing this from a computer running
Jaunty, so that may have something to do with it. Does jigdo work only
if the computer is running Debian?

Still confused and still without a CD image for netinst of testing
amd64. Luckily I am not in a rush.
