Hey,
For a number of years, we've been linking to the amd64/i386 netinst
installer image from the front page. I think it's time to just switch

machines out there are now amd64, and we're asking

Why is that relevant? Is installing+downloading the DVD image faster
than downloading netint + installing from network?

The dnsmasq-base "recommends" is about providing a dhcp server for

From now on, you may be more likely to get sound with pulseaudio than
without due to upstreams dropping support for Alsa. See for example

I'll chime in to what others have said. I think DVD images should not
