    I built an iso, using
    'http://non-us.cdimage.debian.org/jigdo-area/3.0_r2/jigdo/i386/woody-i386-7.jigdo'.

    The installer gave the the following message :
    "The installation program couldn't find any directory containing the files
    rescue.bin, drivers.tgz"
    - it was right, they weren't on the CD.

    On ungzipping the .jigdo file they weren't listed in there either.
    Presumably they weren't on the iso from which the .jigdo was built.
    This is similar to Bug#221266
    So it looks as if there is an iso build script somewhere which misses these
    files.

    This is likely to stymie a new user completely.

    I'd like to report this, but I'm not really sure where to send it. If anyone
    who knows could forward it directly I'd be grateful

    Cheers
