Both. The files exists in "nfsroot/var/...", and in the client chroot.

No, in /tmp/target/var/lib/apt/lists/ are only a file called lock, and 
an empty directory called partial.

Error: The system is read-only.

I've tried several times, and amd64.debian.net is not the only 
repository. amd64.debian.org, security.debian.org, and 
www.informatik.uni-koeln.de are my sources, and no-one works. The 
problem is my cluster.


Thank both!
