Hello, A discussion in de Debian User list revealed that it is not obvious that one needs CD-1 or DVD-1 to boot and that all the other CDs / DVDs are just to hold extra packages. That infiormation may be available at other places but at least not there. A little extra explanation is suggested.
Can someone update the relevant pages? There are 16 different languages of that page. >From the thread "Re: image download with jigdo" -=-=-=-=-=-=-=- < quote > -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- [...] >> Apologies if I've caused any confusion here - the jigdo-created >> images are *exactly* the same as what you'd have if you downloaded >> the ISO directly.
