I'm not sure if I made this clear. 

I want a TORRENT that I can download with a bittorrent client like
Transmission. I don't want a jigdo, whatever that is. And I want a
bootable CD image that will continue the installation over the
internet. That is INTERNET, not a local network. 

I can't find it on a Debian page and I can't seem to explain it here.
Maybe it doesn't exist. Maybe I just don't speak Debian. Maybe I'm just
stupid. But for sure I am frustrated.
