http://crunchbang.org – I would say the mirror was down, you are not the first reporting this. You can also change the Debian mirror if this one is too slow. This list should help you:http://www.debian.org/mirror/list.en.htmlhttp://http.debian.net/debian, this one, seems really to be a betch. Every last post about 404 errors on this forum was by using this mirror.ferenc wrote:Just a quick question while we're at it: debian does not automatically update or check for updates (like ubuntu does) - the user has to do this by himself?Correct. See it as a feature, especially when you are still on Testing (currently Wal (HowTos)

mirrors for security.debian.org 2 years 33 weeks ago

I am able to successfully install and download the packages when I configure my repository on http location in /etc/apt/sources.list file.
