ISOs 1,2, and 3

#1 Post by Sum1 »

I was just wondering if all three ISOs are required for installing Debian. I've found that just using the third seems to be fine, but I'm just checking to be sure.

Iso 1 is the installer and base system. This is the only iso needed. The other iso's are packages in order of popularity.

"All three" ? There are 14 DVD images, not just 3.

AFAIK, the 3rd image is not bootable and does not contain the installer.

Yeah I just found that out. I'm not sure how/why I put 3 instead of 1.
