Naaaah, really edge case, which also should be handled differently (imho).
If someone has limited/poor/no internet connection, then one should use
media with most (all?) packages.
Next, after succesfull install updates should be applied using local
repository (eg. apt-cacher) which addresses poor network connectivity.
For this reason we have following check in 41cdset generator script:
<snip>
if [ ! -e /cdrom/.disk/cd_type ] || [ ! -e /var/lib/install-cd.id ];
then exit 0fi# Various different image types look different here:##
Image Type
cd_type#################################################### netinst
"not_complete"# full CD sets (default desktop)
"full_cd"# desktop-specific CD images "full_cd/single"# DVD
"dvd"# bluray
"bluray"# multi-arch CD/DVD "not_complete"# live
"live"## It can make sense to offer to scan more
media here in most cases,# but... on live or blu-ray it's unlikely to
help; the# desktop-specific image is designed specifically to work
with only a# single image. Hopefully the following makes sense.##
Images written to USB pen drives still need better support# too...
:-(cd_type=$(cat /cdrom/.disk/cd_type)
