That sounds like you're talking about the live images. We *don't* have a "standard" DVD installer image, just a "standard" live image. We also don't have desktop-specific DVD installer images. Please try again with the normal installer image from http://get.debian.org/images/release/10.4.0/amd64/iso-dvd/debian-10.4.0-amd64-DVD-1.iso and see if that works better for you? -- Steve McIntyre, Cambridge, UK. st...@einval.com "I can't ever sleep on planes ... call it irrational if you like, but I'm afraid I'll miss my stop" -- Vivek Das Mohapatra
