Is there already an option (in big, bold, blinking letters BEFORE the
13 CD) named something to the effect of: "base install complete
the rest of your install via the Internet."
I know I wouldn't have chosen Debian if I thought I had to download more
than one CD. Ultimately I used the netinstall (minimal CD) then upgraded
my brains out from there. I personally think that as long as this option
is big, bold and BEFORE the 13 disc option that everything will be fine.
Certainly this is the case when I look at the web site today. I choose:
Network install
Minimal CD
and go from there. But maybe this isn't the new way of doing things?
