Yes and no. A "gold" CD may be more actual, but may contain also the "more
actual" bugs and problems. I prefer to use CDs from established (and popular)
distributions, where reasonable amount of people will work out a smooth
way of installation (and/or handling the problems).
I vote for the InfoMagic Linux Developer's Resource from December 96, which
DISK#3 contains fairly actual version of the Debian 1.2 system.
I did already 3 complete installations using this CD and am very satisfied
about the completeness of its contents.
See ftp.fortuna.org/pub/linux/Debian/InfoMagic-LDR.Dec96 for some details
of installation.
