Bug#121094: www.debian.org: cdimage.debian.org should warn against downloading with an ISDN connection



Package: www.debian.org
Version: 20011125
Severity: normal

The help pages on cdimage.debian.org (especially
http://cdimage.debian.org/ch11.html) recommend that one should download
Debian from Internet if one has a free Internet connection.

This is not true if one has only an ISDN connection!

In this case, the automatic setup procedure (which assumes a modem
connection) fails, and one first has to download somehow the ISDN packages
and configure the ISDN system before one can proceed.

In almost all cases, ISDN users should therefore install their debian from
CD instead.
