Comments/Problems:
I want to offer a suggestion, because i was a little bit puzzled by the following.
After the installation of Debian I wanted to install `texlive` by typing `apt-get texlive-full` in the terminal (i think the actual packages doesn't really matter but anyway), but then there came the message
Media change: please insert the disc labeled
'Debian GNU/Linux 10.3.0 _Buster_ - Official amd64 DVD Binary-1 20200208-12:08' in the drive 'media/cdrom' and press [Enter]
However, I used an USB stick to install Debian and plugging in the usb stick didn't help. I could find a solution on the internet, which told me to change the file `/etc/apt/sources.list` and comment the corresponding line.
I think this should be changed, because it is very confusing and not obvious how to continue. At least there should be a dialog that offers the option to not use the installation DVD.
