With debian the first CD is all you need if you have a network connection
unless you need a boot image or something off another CD to install a
minimal setup. After that apt-get your way through life.

apt-get install task-wall-o-monitors solar-panels task-battery-room oc192
oc192-backup

Ah, if debian just provided more of the necessities of life ;-).
