The thing is, the Sarge installer isn't really complete yet.  Not
that great strides haven't been made, they have, but it's still
changing in periods measured in days rather than months.

I've used them both to get to debian-installer and install from the 
network, and while I can't tell you what it includes also, by checking 
it's size I bet the netinstall has a greater possibility of providing 
you with base packages for sarge... Most ceartainly the businessdcard cd 
will need to fetch more thing from the net.

I've got the netinst image for the new debian-installer (sarge) which I
can burn for you, if you mail me off list (I'm in N. London).  However,
it will leave you with the problem of downloading the current packages.
There is also a businesscard CD image which I could also burn but I
don't know what it includes.

Hi All,

I am on dialup and can't download ISOs and burn them.
I installed woody 3.0r2 on my stystem and then I have
started using apt-pinning to upgrade to latest
packages.
But this is also coming out to be expensive. apt-get
dist-upgrade will also be very expensive on dialup and
time consuming too.

I have looked at many online CD vendors, they seem to
offer only woody. Can someone suggest me from where
can I get the testing and unstable ditributions. I
beleive testing might be using the new Debian
installer.

I am located in UK near London.

Cheers.
Ajitabh Pandey
