Hello to everyone.

I'm trying to install devuan ascii because I think that this old version
could work for my old chromebook. the problem is that I'm not able to find
an active mirror during the installation. I think because ascii is old. Do
you know if there is one enabled ? or what should I do at this point ? I'm
stuck on the graphical installer. Thanks.
