In that regard, as I was just recently attempting this: how do I determine
the DNS numbers from a website. The network install program wants these and
I only had the domain name. I hope I am using correct terms here: I knew I
could use "mirrors.kernel.org..." for example, but did not know how to get
its 4 dotted DNS numbers. Thanks for pointing me in the right direction.
