Since Debian has blown up in size so much the chance is unfortunately nil. We 
looked at creating a Debian 3.0r1 Update CD (with some automation inside) but 
even this task is problematic because this business is less familiar with the 
Debian architecture. 

We were looking for a real simple efficient and if possible automated way to 
have Debian 3.0r1 installed using a Debian 3.0r0 CD set with 3.0r1 Update CD. 
We could not come up with one. In comparison in Gentoo's case:

mv /mnt/cdrom/* /usr/portage/distfiles
emerge -u world

would do the job.

Our Debian customers rely on us because they mostly have download limits or use 
dial-up to gain access to Debian. It is simply uneconomical to download 7 isos 
for 11 architectures every time Debian does a new release.

If a Debian guru can come up with a way to create a 

Debian 3.0r0 -> 3.0r1 Update CD

then we are most happy to supply this disc to our Debian customers.
