Well, on real Compact Disc there will be problems with the size of contemporary operating systems. A maximum capacity of 800 MB will suffice only for the tiniest distros. So i expand your question to DVD, Blu-ray, and USB sticks. Since this is the Debian user community list, i point to https://www.debian.org/CD/vendors/ But of course, you do not have to buy physical media in order to get Debian. The whole software collection is available for free as downloadable images for DVD and Blu-ray. Sized for CD and very small USB sticks is https://cdimage.debian.org/debian-cd/current/amd64/iso-cd/ This gives you a minimal Debian system which is just suitable for getting and installing the Debian packages of a generally usable Debian system via the internet. I assume that most people nowadays start their Debian installation by that small ISO image. But if you want the whole stuff or a large part of it on physical medium, you may get the bigger ISO images. E.g. for Intel/AMD compatible 64-bit processors: https://cdimage.debian.org/debian-cd/current/amd64/jigdo-dvd/ https://cdimage.debian.org/debian-cd/current/amd64/jigdo-bd/ https://cdimage.debian.org/debian-cd/current/amd64/jigdo-dlbd/ About Jigdo download see for example: https://wiki.debian.org/JigdoOnLive#Install_package_jigdo-file which is part of the instructions for using Jigdo without having a Debian system installed: https://wiki.debian.org/JigdoOnLive Expect nearly 100 GiB of downloadable images for multiple media. They may be merged into a single image for a big USB stick or a 4-layer Blu-ray: https://wiki.debian.org/RepackBootableISO Another image offers the most popular 16 GB of that collection for putting it on a smaller USB stick: https://cdimage.debian.org/debian-cd/current/amd64/jigdo-16G/ > whant back to the core without AI, I am not aware that Debian would be explicitely free of AI software. But i trust the Debian developers not to impose significant AI on us without prior notification and the option to disable it. Have a nice day :) Thomas
