You don't want to unselect "all" of the packages, just the ones
you don't have the space for...right?

I think Linuxiso.org has some Woody ISOs. I
am not sure if they are the most recent, but
I am sure you can find some at Debian Planet.

Hello everyone,
Thanks for all the responses. I think I'm getting closer to
