Great! Thanks!
The HP Compaq 8200 Elite SFF that I'm about to grab has a Intel Core
i5-2400S processor.
I browsed the Debian installer pages and as far as I understand I should
use "other images (netboot, USB stick, etc.)" for the installation, but
to me it is not obvious if I should use the image for the amd64 or the
i386 architecture:

My typcal problem. I should know basic stuff like that.
Is the "Debian Designation" for the Intel Core i5-2400S processor "Intel
x86-based" or "AMD 64 & Intel 64"?
(I am looking at the table "2.1.1. Supported Architectures" in the
Debian GNU/Linux Installation Guide on the pages of d-i.debian.org/manual/)
Best regards.
