installation from hd?



Hello,

I intend to install debian on a laptop but I only have wireless and cd as
the only media options. I have already
partitioned my hd and I wanted to ask if it is possible to download debian
iso´s to one partition and install from
there. I could only find the netinst cd but this will not work with my
wireless!
