Might turn out that you need a copy ofhttp://pkgmaster.devuan.org/merged/dists/chimaera-* of whatever architecture you want to use. Don't know how big a copy of one architecture might be, but I guess you should use BD instead of DVD.


Only the netinst image requires network connection. This image contains just the minimal amount of packages to install the base system;
from thereon the remaining packages are installed over the internet.

For your purpose, Steve, the desktop installer-iso mentioned by golinux might be the best choice. As a complement, cd2, cd3 and cd4
contain more packages sorted by popularity. So labeled images are entirely optional and play the role of a local repository that can be
added with "apt-cdrom add". Hence, they aren't meant to boot.

Cheers,

Aitor.
