I'm using Debian 9.8.0 at the moment which was installed using the hd-install media instead of burning an ISO DVD (to save plastic).
Now I've just tried to install: debian-10.1.0-i386-DVD-1.iso
with the latest hd-media:-
http://ftp.debian.org/debian/dists/stre ... ia/vmlinuz
http://ftp.debian.org/debian/dists/stre ... /initrd.gz
using exactly the same method again but the process has failed.
The install-syslog [extract] is:-
Code: Select all

but that would mean that nobody else at all has done an hd-install since the release which I find hard to believe.
However, on the other hand: It maybe that I have used the wrong installer image, especially as I had just the very same problem [& missing package] on the 10.0 release, though I let that go by.
Can anyone help please?
