I want to make a 'business card' install CD as mentioned in old
boiler plate at www.debian.org, but I can't fathom the organization
of the hot links there. What is
the URL of the actual iso image that I need to download and burn
onto a blank CD?
It is no longer produced.


I hope it can be revived. It has been a useful tool for me when my
attempts to dist-upgrade fail, as they usually do.
It is very, very unlikely it will be.

My 6.0.4 business card, worked at getting me running on wheezy, and
even offered to install 'jessie', or 'squeeze', which it called 'old
stable'. The beauty of business card is that the facts of what is to
be downloaded are not burnt into the physical CD. I hope I can find
a copy of the old iso image in the rubble of my old system.
The netboot mini.iso should suit your desire for beauty. It can be seen
as basically the businesscard ISO without the installer components.


I think mini.iso will solve my problem. I've tried it on my equipment and ran through a trial install up to the point where it asked for a commit to writing a new format on my computer's hard disk. Every step of the way the questions asked were exactly the same. The basic similarity is pretty good, and it even has a shorter name, saving disk space in the directory, and clutter on the terminal screen. ;-) I had always felt the old name didn't indicate its real value.

Thanks.
