I *think* I know the differences between the various snapshots for
Debian stretch but it would be nice to have my understanding confirmed
(and also some idea of their sizes).

So 'console' is a wholly non-GUI installation probably mostly intended
for a headless BBB which one is going to access via ssh.  

'lxqt' is a full GUI build with graphical login and a GUI desktop.

'iot' is somewhere in between and it's this one I'm least clear about,
what does 'iot' stand for and what does it have that 'console' doesn't
(and/or what does it lack that 'lxqt' has)?


There don't seem to be 2Gb and 4Gb images for Debian Stretch so I
guess that this means the GUI version(s) can't be fitted into 2Gb any
more, is this right?  How big (approximately) are they when installed?

A 'console' installation still seems pretty small, I've just
(finally!) got one installed on a 2Gb BBB and it's only using 20% of
the 2Gb so that leaves me loads of space for the sort of things I want
to do.
