I have a rather recent computer (about three years old) and would like to install woody. In order to save on servers usage and bandwidth, I thought to download (using jigdo) just the base CD, install the system, and then slowly gather all the rest from the internet, later, using something called apt-get. Would it be a wise approach?
Also, debian documentation [http://www.debian.org/releases/woody/i386/ch-install-methods.en.html#s4.1] says that: a) `compact' CD would support my 3c905 Boomerang card (without which an installation would be useless); b) `bf2.4' CD better supports new things. Also I heard that such bf2.4 thing is better. Now: which CD shall I use? Compact or bf2.4? I also heard of some "option of bf24 install", some command maybe that you put somewhere... In case it is true: a) How does it work? b) Will I download both CDs, all the same?
