Upgrading 9.1 to 9.2 via FTP -- System Update


I have several FTP sources setup in my Software Source Media setup all pointint to the "current" folder. If I follow my thinking correctly, this should update to the current version of 9.2 correct?

When I do a system update I receive this message:
Cannot read package data from installation media. Media error? │
│Change... menu. │ │ * ERROR: No proposal


Any help

try again but disable all but 1 of the FTP source, or try with a single http source.
Then do the system update.
It's better to do it trhough root in failsafe mode.

I have disabled all but one of the ftp selections and have also disabled all of them and changed it to an http selection. It looks like it is searching and just "timing out." Should I be using a different mirror then?
