Aidan's got his new PC, and has decided to go with Debian. Being limited
to dial-up, the plan is to do a base install from disk, retrieve the
repository indices from the 'net, generate a download script for the
desired packages, and do the actual download off-site. 

 

Does this sound workable? 

 

Which CD do we need for the base install? The Debian site has about 20
images for the current release, as well as a "net install" disk. The
latter sounds promising, but does it require a network connection during
installation?

 

Any advice would be appreciated!

 

Thanks,

Mike
