I do not understand you but there should be an answer in instal;l manual. (If you are doing netinstall, it may be http.us.debian.org Or something similar. But why netinstall when you have 2 CDs. I think you only need CD#1 for install. Once oiinstalled, you get it upgraded to latest any version. > Things were going fine to that point. This is a i386 system.
