I have tried this one
http://cdimage.debian.org/cdimage/etch_di_beta2/i386/iso-cd/debian-testing-i386-netinst.iso,
successfully installed a base system, now that I have a full Sarge installer cd, i want to install a desktop enviroment by using it rather than download a full Etch iso (if i could access a debian cd vendor here, I'd like to buy a set.) I don't know if it could be as my thought, anyway I tried this:
vi /etc/apt/sources.list, disable two http mirro sources
put the Sarge cd in
apt-cdrom add -d /media/cdrom1 I checked sources.list had beed added two cdrom rows
tasksel, select desktop enviroment
but it failed back to console.
Is there any choices for me to install an desktop env except download a whole iso again?
Thanks for your time!
