-There are two different netinst CD images which can be used to install
-&releasename; with the &d-i;. These images are intended to boot from CD
-and install additional packages over a network, hence the name 'netinst'.
-The difference between the two images is that on the full netinst image
-the base packages are included, whereas you have to download these from
-the web if you are using the business card image. If you'd rather, you can
-get a full size CD image which will not need the network to install. You

+The netinst CD image is a popular image which can be used to install
+&releasename; with the &d-i;. This image is intended to boot from CD and
+install additional packages over a network; hence the name 'netinst'.
+The image has the software components needed to run the installer and
+the base packages to provide a minimal &releasename; system. If you'd

+to install. You only need the first CD of the set.
