You'll be given the opportunity to pick an installation source.
Internet is one option but cd/dvd is another. When you pick cd/dvd,
you'll be prompted to insert each dvd in the dvd drive so debian can
index what you have. Once all of that is done, to install a package
you'll be prompted for one or both of those cd/dvd's if the install you
want needs files from both of them. To move over to internet for your
source, you're going to have to comment out active lines in
'/etc/apt/sources.list and add in internet repository lines to select
mirrors and distributions. Fortunately for you, a tool exists to help
you select your best internet mirrors. The security mirror is separate
from the debian main mirror and there is also a multimedia mirror that
can be installed in /etc/apt/sources.list. Once you have changed
/etc/apt/sources.list, you want to run aptitude update first then
aptitude safe-upgrade to get updates those dvd's don't have.

Ok.
I've got dvd disks, and all Three isos downloaded so I can burn them.
How do I do when I want to install a package that is not on the first
dvd, but one of the others?
Also, when I get internet access. How do I select a mirror, and use
apt-get install the normal way?

Hi.
I'm going to install debian.
When I install I don't have internet on that computer.
What do I need then?
There are dvd images. Do I need all?
