Live Installs



Hey Debian Team,

I see you removed all the Trixie live installs (except torrent), and not a moment too soon.  A couple of weeks ago, I downloaded the LXQt and Cinnamon ones, and wasted hours trying to figure out why those installs created no repositories.  Of course, it was because you forgot the question about a mirror.  You also forgot the popularity contest question.

I only finally figured it out when I saw Derek Taylor's (DistroTube) video.  He was using the netinstall, so I tried that and it worked, especially after he ran into the same problem as I did, when he forgot to designate a mirror..  Well, I think instead of just pulling the live installs from the Debian website, you should also APOLOGIZE on that page to the many users who wasted countless hours trying to install from one of the live installs.  You owe the Debian community that much.
