Thanks for keeping me honest ;-) I remember several changes on our site that broke old install isos. I recently tested some of them and afaik those before 2009.02 don't work because that kernel is too old for our glibc or something similar. Or some day we had changed the repo layout etc.. In general Arch is moving to fast to keep old isos and install working. -- Pierre Schmitz, https://users.archlinux.de/~pierre
