I'm not sure what you mean. What is an "extra" iso?
You mean the full set of CD or DVD images? I find a net install works best
nowadays. Then you just download and install packages as you want to.
The archive is simply huge now so it's a lot to download and burn unless you
have machines that are not connected to the net that you want to install or
update.
