I understand they are not "complete". I was refereing to just downloading
what you need. For many people CD 4-5 are needed due to the language they
want to install in.

I asume just downloading CD1-3 instead of all 6 is due to not wanting to
download what you don't need. If less download is what you are after, then
a download of boot.iso _might_ be a better choice.

This again depends on how many you want to install. On 1 machine boot.iso
is more efficient.

And if you want to install a "normal" system, boot.iso is enough as well
as CD1.
