Need a woking Mirror for Debian "Sarge"

[ChrisH]

... Preferably a minimal CD image. Cant find a working link at all !!!! The server Im trying to install on just hangs on the first language selection screen on etch and it also does the same on Ubuntu Feisty no matter what switches I try. I can get dapper to run no problem and update but after a few problems I have decided to revert back to Debian.

 

Help pls

Whats wrong with http://www.mirror.ac.uk ?

Whats wrong with ftp://ftp.uk.debian.org ???

 

Edit... I have noticed that I had to use the URL ftp://ftp.uk.debian.org/debian so your sources.list should look something like...

 

deb [url]ftp://ftp.uk.debian.org/debian/[/url] sarge main

deb [url]http://security.debian.org/[/url] sarge/updates main

Thanks I tried all the mirrors I could find but they didnt have what I wanted. I will download it when I am able as our connection is very flakey at the moment.

Is this for Censornet by any chance?

@NetworkGeezer: It's because he has a dodgy, cheap-ass, server! I've stuck an image on my FTP site so he should be OK now.

Forgotten to feed the Carrier pidgeons again Chris?
