After doing the 1.9.0 update on multiple ERX, I am get errors (that did not occur with 1.8.5) when I try following the steps from EdgeMAX - Add other Debian packages to EdgeOS
This is exactly the steps I do:
configure
set system package repository wheezy components 'main contrib non-free'
set system package repository wheezy distribution wheezy
set system package repository wheezy url http://http.us.debian.org/debian
set system package repository wheezy-security components main
set system package repository wheezy-security distribution wheezy/updates
set system package repository wheezy-security url http://security.debian.org
commit
save
exit
Then I try running the initial apt-get update command which gives me the following output and error:
sudo apt-get update

I have managed to brick one ERX while trying to fix the Debian Packages. Thinking it needed a reboot, I did a Restart from the System screen. Lights came on, but couldn't access the WebGUI or SSH. Reset procedures didn't work. So when the other units get the error. I don't even reboot, I immediately reset to the Default configuration.
Is anyone else able to duplicate the Debian Package issues?
My testing platform is putting the ERX behind the built-in firewall on a Comcast Business connection with available static IP's but using the 10.1.10.x DHCP coming from the Comcast Modem to eth0 (configured using the Wan+2LAN2 wizard - no mods).
