Dear Debianists,
If I wanted to install etch as a net install, how do I do this? On
the installation web page there is a choice of a weekly snapshot or a
daily built image. The daily built image has a netinstall CD in it.
Is there a netinstall CD for the weekly one?
I have never tried to install Etch.
Did you download the Etch RC1 installer from
http://www.debian.org/devel/debian-installer/? Choose "netinst CD image
(100-150 MB)". Burn the ISO image to a CD. Boot from the CD and press F3
at the prompt. You can choose a curses-bases installer or a GUI
installer. The installer will install all the latest packages in Etch
directly from the repository. You will need a broadband connection.
Have a look at section 4.2 in
http://newbiedoc.berlios.de/wiki/Installing_Debian_on_a_small_partition
for what to expect for a network install for Sarge - Etch is similar.
