Ah, ok. Technically, there is only one d-i but it comes in several
different images not all of which are ISOs. There's at least the
boot.img.gz for USB drives and the tftpboot.img.
Apart from d-i you can also use debootstrap to install Debian, but you
need another running system for that. And there's FAI which IIRC started
as a Debian-only solution. I am not aware of any other installers.
