Subject: [DNG] Installing Beowulf
Hi.

I have a need to install a new machine with Devuan Beowulf - fortunately, only
temporarily.

(The short answer to "why?" is "to check whether someone is correct about the
upgrade to Chimaera having broken something which they haven't spotted until
now".) We know that the upgrade from Chimaera to Daedalus hasn't caused the
problem.

Running the Beowulf installer gets as far as asking which network mirror I
want to use, and there are only two choices, neither of which work any more
because Beowulf has been archived.

How do I tell the installer to use archive.devuan.org as the network mirror,
so it can at least fetch and install the last released packages for Beowulf?

Thanks,


Antony.
