It is absolutely safe, as soon as it is a good mirror (I've seen mirrors
that are not synced correctly some times - missing or corrupt packages). I
use the debian mirror of Greece, since I am located in Greece.

<br>
I experience some problems with <a href="http://ftp.hk.debian.org" \
target="_blank">ftp.hk.debian.org</a>. I can only download with about 2000 to 5000 \
B/s thus waiting and waiting and waiting for every single small package I want to \
install, e.g. waiting about 40 minutes to install pppoe.<br>

<br>
I noticed it is this mirror from /etc/apt/sources.list:<br>

Is it safe to replace this mirror with any debian mirror out there? It seems to be \
just a normal debian mirror offering the etch distribution. Or are there any \
voyage-specific packages so that I will break up something when using, for \
example,<br>

<br>
deb <a href="http://debian.tu-bs.de/debian/" \
target="_blank">http://debian.tu-bs.de/debian/</a> etch main<br> <br>
