Hi Thomas
Thanks for your reply
Sorry it was not a minimal buster iso with xfce but i got this file
debian-10.4.0-amd64-xfce-CD-1.iso which is around 640 MB
I was able to install and get the system up and running last year , later i
updated to Bullseye but going for a kernel update lost my OS few days before
I then downloded the minimal bullseye iso , but without xfce it is a big
problem, also having issues with broadcom wifi driver and there is no wired
connectivity.to my system.
I am not able to download the bullseye iso file which you mentioned since it is
around 3.7 GB which is too large.
Can you suggest some links for downloading the bullseye along with xfce which
comes to less than 1 GB or preferably somewhere around 500-800 MB, or suggest
ways to install the xfce offline , there is no deb file for such GUI's

Are sure that you did not use the DVD-1 images with these earlier Debian
versions ?
https://cdimage.debian.org/debian-cd/current/amd64/list-dvd/debian-11.0.0-amd64-DVD-1.list.gz
lists various XFCE related packages.
This list describes the ISO image at
https://cdimage.debian.org/debian-cd/current/amd64/iso-dvd/debian-11.0.0-amd64-DVD-1.iso
The netinst ISOs are too small to hold the packages of a desktop
environment. Looking into debian-10.6.0-amd64-netinst.iso ,
debian-9.3.0-amd64-netinst.iso, and debian-8.1.0-amd64-netinst.iso i do not
see any package files with "xfce" in the name.
Have a nice day :)
Thomas
