Only the netinst image requires network connection. This image
contains just the minimal amount of packages to install the base
system; from thereon the remaining packages are installed over the
internet.
For your purpose, Steve, the desktop installer-iso mentioned by
golinux might be the best choice. As a complement, cd2, cd3 and cd4
contain more packages sorted by popularity. So labeled images are
entirely optional and play the role of a local repository that can be
added with "apt-cdrom add". Hence, they aren't meant to boot.
.. and nowadays there is the "pool1" ISO that includes the 5000 "most
popular" packages. That's double of desktop ISO which merely includes
the 2500 most "popular packages".
Thank you, you answered a question I was about to ask
Ralph.
Best Regards
