Ive been looking left and right for a net install cd for the latest Debian, but all of the links for one go to sites that are down. I've read about people using Knoppix as an installer for Debian. Has anyone done a remaster specifically to install Debian? It would be great if someone would make one that could work as a net install, because Knoppix includes software Debian doesn't.

Unfortunately, that's only if there's not many other apps you want to install. When you try to apt-get a lot of programs, you get an error about broken packages and dependencies. There are a few ways around this, but for a some apps nothing works, except to purge most of the apps you started with and reinstall everything (ugh).
