Try:
ftp.linuxberg.com
pub/distributions/Yellowdog/champion-1.2/ppc

(yes, no prefixed or postfixed '/') :)

    The installer should give you the URL its trying to access on one of the
Virtual Consoles (I think 3), and you'll see that its concatenating the
first string, a /, the second string, and the file path
(/YellowDog/base/stage1.img, for example).
