It just depends from what's in the sources.list. No, it cannot "act as" a netinst CD, or rather that expression really does not make any sense. A full CD basically is a netinst CD + a significant number of additional packages. A netinst contains only packages necessary to install a base system; a full CD contains that + standard packages + packages for various tasks. You can indeed use the KDE/Xfce CDs together with the set, but to ensure you have all packages available, you need the _whole_ set, including CD1! There will be some overlap between the KDE/Xfce CDs and other CDs in the set, but that overlap is spread across multiple other CDs from the set. And thus it cannot replace CD1. > Or _should_ they just not be shipped with the 21-disk-set? They can be shipped _with_ the while set, just not as an _alternative_ to CD1. Cheers, FJP
