I always considered the DVD images as the same as the CD images, the only difference being the number of packages included on the media. I always assumed that the debian-installer part would be the same. Correct me if I'm wrong. >> Is this still possible with the released version of Lenny? Or do I need >> all 5 of the DVD's? The first media will in most cases give you a fully functioning system. If you require packages from non-free (for intel wireless :-( etc.) and don't have access to a network connection during install then you will need to download any extra packages and store them on a media you will be able to access.
