The question is not what is part of what, the question is what is needed. Since you need a working computer to install an OS on a computer, why can't we have that with an installation media so we can switch between the actual installer and the working system simply by pressing a key/button? When the actual installer asks me a question I cannot answer or when I find out I need to download something to proceed with the installation, I can just switch to the working system and google for an answer or download what I need. That's basically what the working system needs to provide me with; I don't need to run gimp or to compile emacs on it. -- Debian testing amd64 -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
