I took Stuart's advice and here is the result with images taken from
ftp.hostserver.de
For the sendbug -P I need to figure out some things too, but only if
it is badly needed.
It works:
archive/2025-02-20-0105/snapshots/amd64/miniroot76.img
Build date: 1739988341 - Wed Feb 19 18:05:41 UTC 2025
It doesn't work:
archive/2025-02-20-0105/snapshots/amd64/miniroot76.img
Build date: 1740073324 - Thu Feb 20 17:42:04 UTC 2025
I hope someone can look, i am not very good in finding files on cvsweb.
Thank you.
