I had never experimented with just how much could be done with netinst without any internet connectivity.Probably not a lot. See; https://www.debian.org/CD/netinst/ Internet connectivity is expected to exist.
I'm wishing I had discovered the netinst iso years ago.*NOTE BENE* Up until about a year ago I had only dial-up. The only practical installation path that met my needs was purchasing complete DVD sets. I spent many hours trying to coerce Debian into doing a minimalist install. If I had succeeded, I suspect the result would have been close to netinst WITHOUT internet connectivity. But I've learned a lot.
