Woody Sources!

[Mikenell]

I forgot to back up my sources.list file after the last time I upgraded to woody and now I can't remember what I need to do to change to unstable. I tried changing all references of stable to unstable but it doesn't work properly, some of the sites are found, some aren't. What do I need to change them to? (Preferably UK mirrors)
Thanks a lot
Mikenell

Can someone post their sources.list who has upgraded to woody, but only the unstable sites that I will need. I don't mind if they're in the US or anywhere. Also, should I comment out the stable sites that are already in my sources.list file after I setup Debian?
Thanks
Mikenell

I think all you'll need to do is change some comments and you'll be all set http://www.linuxnewbie.org/ubb/biggrin.gif -- if you want I'll post my whole sources.list

Q: How many existentialists does it take to screw in a lightbulb?
A: Two. One to screw it in and one to observe how the lightbulb itself symbolizes a single incandescent beacon of subjective reality in a netherworld of endless absurdity reaching out toward a maudlin cosmos of nothingness.

Thanks, unfortunatly, I'm in the uk so those sources are VERY slow and even time out 99% of the time I'm gonna have to go back to finding uk mirrors. Does anyone in the UK have uk debian sources?
Thanks
Mikenell

[Mikenell]

Ok, I found this uk server:

ftp://ftp.uk.debian.org/debian/

But I don't know how the sources.list file works so how do I set it up to use it? (Unstable Woody)
Thanks
