The broken mini is mentioned in https://wiki.debian.org/InstallFAQ as one of the ways to get a Sid installation: Use netboot "mini.iso" image. You will find it on any of the Debian mirrors under debian/dists/unstable/main/installer-*/current/images/netboot/mini.iso. During the installation choose "Advanced options" -> "Expert install". In the step "Choose a mirror of the Debian archive" choose version "sid - unstable". I got a Sid VM meanwhile via upgrade-dist from stable to testing to unstable. The statement from the FAQ turned out to be true: This method is the most sure to work of those presented here. Have a nice day :) Thomas
