Comments/Problems:
My English is pool :)
When I use the mirror <http://debian.cn99.com/debian> (It's the fastest
mirror for me),
the apt-get always failed after successful downloaded a file, just like
this:
1: success
2: Server close connection
3: success
4: Server close connection
.....
So if I use this mirror to deal a network installation, it always
failed.
It seems that: apt-get try to get the next file immediately after the
previous file was
received. So if the http server closes TCP connections after transform a
file, apt-get will
receive a TCP FIN after sending out a HTTP/GET of the next file.
I think there are two schemes:
1. We can set a "retry" option for apt-get during installation.
2. Close TCP connection and reconnect for every file.
