Yes, but this is a "minimal image" as I understand and addi= tional
binaries (for example if you want an lxde desktop) will be downloaded.
That's fine for a single install, but requires re-download of same
packages should one aim to install on several systems.

yes,but a local repo takes care of that. (and that re= po can be the contents of the cd)
=C2=A0
If there is one, I have not come across a desktop (gnome/kde/lxde) live
image+netboot iso file in the repository.
you are right that there are no live+netboot/install ima= ges (iso or other), but since grub has great menu capability, you can offer= either netinstall or live (which can be created from any iso created by de= bian live by extracting the kernel, initrd, cmdline and rootfs (I have done= it with a gparted iso))
