Rather than continue spamming this list(s) every time I build another Reiser4 enabled iteration of fast changing Unstable (Sid) Debian-Installer (d-i), I will just replace the resource(s) pointed by the links: https://metztli.it/readOnlyEphemeral/metztli.iso https://metztli.it/readOnlyEphemeral/metztli.SHA256 If you download a Reiser4-enabled netboot image and, upon installation procedure, Debian stops midway complaining about Packages.xz (security) not being found and/or selected -- or unable to find selected version, it is likely the case that Unstable (Sid) Debian is in transition state and it takes a few days for the repositories to stabilize again. Accordingly, as Reiser4-enabled d-i aims at a fast moving target, if you experience issues like those described, please wait a few days and then download the ISO image again -- as more likely I will already have upgraded the netboot ISO image to one that works. As I refine the image, the build (and test install) may likely be automated so as to decrease these transition nasty surprises.
