Bug Description
I am trying to use apt-cacher with the netboot installer found here:
http://
(tried feisty's too)
The only way I could get it to work were with these settings:
### Mirror settings
d-i mirror/country string enter information manually
d-i mirror/
d-i mirror/
I tried a normal hostname and dir (us.archive.
d-i mirror/http/proxy string http://
d-i mirror/http/proxy string cp600:3142/
d-i mirror/http/proxy string http://
d-i mirror/http/proxy string cp600:3142
In both a preseed file and the interactive text based installer. The only thing that I could see working was to put the proxy in hostname, host name in dir and and leave proxy blank. yuck.
It seems odd that the proxy needs the http:// when hostname doesn't.
instead of using the alt CD image as a repo for netboot install, I am trying apt-cacher and the following:
wget -N http:// us.archive. ubuntu. com/ubuntu/ dists/gutsy/ main/installer- i386/current/ images/ netboot/ 386/ubuntu- installer/ i386/linux us.archive. ubuntu. com/ubuntu/ dists/gutsy/ main/installer- i386/current/ images/ netboot/ 386/ubuntu- installer/ i386/initrd. gz
wget -N http://
then using either of these in my pxe boot;
label ubuntu- gutsy-alternate ubuntu/ gutsy/initrd. gz root=/dev/rd/0 rw DEBCONF_DEBUG=5 --
kernel ubuntu/gutsy/linux
append initrd=
