Hello,

I'm novice here. I'm trying to install Proxmox on top of Debian Wheezy along the howto post in the wiki. Everything works fine until installing pve-firmware . This fails with the following message:

Code:
Code:
root@debian:/home/west-proxmox# aptitude install pve-firmware
Couldn't find any package whose name or description matched "pve-firmware"

I already tried to replace http:// with ftp:// in the source.list, but it didn't help.

Do you have a hint for me what I'm doing wrong?

1. post your sources.list file
2. run apt-get update (show error messages it there are any)
 
here is the source.list
Code:
  GNU nano 2.2.6          File: /etc/apt/source.list                            

deb http://ftp.at.debian.org/debian wheezy main contrib
# PVE repository provided by proxmox.com
deb http://download.proxmox.com/debian wheezy pve
# security updates
deb http://security.debian.org/ wheezy/updates main contrib

and here is the apt-get update
Code:

here is the source.list

you have wrong file name.

its not "etc/apt/source.list", instead it should be:

/etc/apt/sources.list
