The Debian netinst iso is 190MB whilst the business card iso is 45MB in
size.
Which one should I use?
Thanks

An easier way than Russell's is to use the netinst iso (only 25 MB or
so) and then in the installation point it to the Debian mirror on
AARNet. No need to set up a PXE server or anything, just run the CD and
point it to a Debian mirror as the installation source. You will
probably need a wired internet connection though.

During the install give it this url:
http://mirror.aarnet.edu.au/pub/debian/pool/main/
It seems to have PPC packages.
