There's no problem here...that's all the process was supposed to give
you.

*-miniinst.iso contains the contents of disc1/ and that's all.

*-disc1.iso on the FTP mirrors is the contents of disc1/ plus
packages.  For releases and snapshots, this is made by the release
engineer(s) by dropping a packages/ directory into disc1/ and
re-running mkisofs(1).

Slightly confusing, I know!

Bruce.
