That's for Wheezy.


Looking for Jessie:

     https://www.debian.org/

-> available versions of Debian

     https://www.debian.org/releases/

-> testing

     https://www.debian.org/releases/testing/

-> the Debian-Installer page

     https://www.debian.org/devel/debian-installer/

I see netinst images, but no mini.iso images.


STFW "site:debian.org testing mini.iso"

http://ftp.debian.org/debian/dists/testing/main/installer-i386/current/images/netboot/mini.iso

23 MB -- much better.


Thanks!

p.s.  The netboot image does not appear to contain the packages required 
for Rescue mode.  The netinst image does.  That's (part of?) the 288 - 
23 = 265 MB difference.
