But in Debian internet site I only found stable and testing business card images, not sid ones. E.g.: http://cdimage.debian.org/cdimage/daily-builds/daily/arch-latest/i386/iso-cd/debian-testing-i386-businesscard.iso . There's nothing like: http://cdimage.debian.org/cdimage/daily-builds/daily/arch-latest/i386/iso-cd/debian-sid-i386-businesscard.iso . So, after downloading and installing the testing business card iso image, I suppose I have to do `apt-get update' and `apt-get dist-upgrade' as well, to pass from testing to sid? Besides, I read that a business card image does not include any packages; but on the other hand I need the ppp package to download the rest: is ppp included in a business card image? Besides: what are, in general with a Debian upgrade, the proper commands? `apt-get update' and `apt-get dist-upgrade' or instead full-upgrade or safe-upgrade? Excuse so many questions.
