I downloaded netinst AMD 64 bits and made an installation on a laptop today. I believe it was http://cdimage.debian.org/debian-cd/8.6.0/amd64/iso-cd/debian-8.6.0-amd64-netinst.iso I choose 64 bit install (that's for a uefi laptop [with no more csm] and that's was about the sixth distro iso I tried) and that's was the first one to work (except for erfind and gparted).
Anyway, when it came time to choose a mirror, I tried 6 or 7 in Canada (where I am) and 6 or 7 in USA, none was working. Ctrl-Alt-F4, did show, a wget ... | grep ^something, then a message that no valid jessie image was found on the server. I am sorry, it is not very clear. I finished installation, then added a /etc/source.list for stable with main contrib non-free, and then was able after apt-get select, to do a sudo tasksel. So I got around but still, wanted to share that something seems to go wrong.
