Hello, I have plans to install Debian Etch (no, I don't want anyone bashing this distro or that, I just like trying new distros and scouting the Linux scene, after all Debain is where Ubuntu came from originally.) Anyways, I don't want to sit and watch it download each pacakage seperatly using the net install, and quite frankly it won't work as I don't think I will be able to get my wifi card working before starting the install. On the other hand I don't want to download and burn 15 cds just to test debain out. So What I need to know is, What cds do I need to get a very basic installation with gnome. Something similar to the Ubuntu cd in terms of what packages it comes with. What I am hoping for is just one or two cds that I should get. Thanx for all you help.
