you're using DSL, that would be fine), I'd recommend to
simply get yourself a net-install CD (with PPPoE for the
DSL stuff if you aren't using a DSL router), boot from that
one and install via network.
You only need to download what you actually want, it's
more current and a nice way of doing things anyway.
True. But I want to test the installation on a first PC, then do a final
installation on a second. So the aim is also to keep the downloaded
files, in order not to download them twice.
Will that be possible?
either you keep all your deb files of /var/cache/apt/archives and copy
them to the second machine, or you need to have a deeper look into
apt-proxy.
