I want to install debian 4 etch (due to compatibility reasons I can't use debian 5 lenny) but I can't find it.

I looked at the debian archive, but it only lists 1.1 through 3.1, and the getting debian page only lists methods to install debian 5...

I'm sure I'm simply overlooking it but can someone point me to a place where I can find an ISO for debian 4? thanks

I went through the mirrors list for the latest release and found this mirror:

http://mirror.aarnet.edu.au/pub/debian-cd/

They still have 4 available. This was the second mirror on the list so I imagine some of the other ones have it too.

no problem, I probably would've done the same thing searching for myself. – einstiien Feb 19 '10 at 16:18

In http://snapshot.debian.net/ you can find debian packages from any version and any time

I did not know about snapshot.debian.org, this helped me get apache on a system I needed. – becomingwisest Jan 25 at 3:02

FWIW, you are probably aware of this, but for anyone else stumbling upon this page, The Debian Project has announced it's terminating security support for etch as of Feb 2010. (http://www.debian.org/News/2010/20100121)
