There's no relationship between the size of the installer and the size of the installed system. You can use the businesscard installer to install a full GNOME 3 system. There's no relationship between the size of the installer and the interaction with the installer . Whether you use the businesscard installer, the netinst installer, or the "full CD" installer, you interact with the installer with the same d-i interface. The difference between the businesscard and the netinst installers is that the businesscard installer cannot install a system without an internet connection whereas the netinst installer can, at most, install a base system without an internet connection. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
