Yes.  I tried to make an autodetect and disable network usage (at
least for security.debian.org) if there is no Internet connection
available.  Not sure if I succeeded yet.

Well, I will focus on the DVD now.  Not sure what the future for the
CDs will be.  If someone want to fix the installer to handle more than
one CD, I guess we could get them working as well.

> Shoud we change the download links?

Which links?  For the daily testing, I recommend testing the DVD
images.  I've tried to reduce the DVD image size, to limit the DVD to
the packages we are interested in, but haven't suceeded with this so
far.  If anyone know how to get debian-cd to make only 2.0 GiB DVDs,
please tell me how. :)
