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
