Cannot do a netinstall (Trisquel 12 / Ecne)

I wish to install Trisquel 12 via netinstall.
But two issues are in the way:

1) The option to download the netinstaller does not appear: https://cdbuilds.trisquel.org/ecne/
I suppose that when it is not there, it means that it is not produced.

2) When I start from a live usb, I am not presented with the menu to choose installation method: https://trisquel.info/en/wiki/aramo
This example is with Trisquel 11. I get the same result with a live usb with Trisquel 11 mini, and I suppose it to be the same with Trisquel 12.

Am I doing something wrong or looking in the wrong place?

Thanks.

Will it never be listed with the other download options?

I downloaded the netinstall tar and used the application to create at start-up disk on a usb pen. When restarting, the computer recognises the pen but chossing that, nothing happens...

What is the correct way to create a live usb from the netinstaller tar?

Choose the mini.iso

I don't know which app it is.

The way I write an installation iso to a USB drive:
- I insert the USB drive
- I run "lsblk" to check the device letter and see is some partitions were automatically mounted (one option is to run lsblk before inserting the device, and again after, but usually I only do it after as which device is the USB drive is obvious from the size information)
- if, for example, the device is /dev/sda and /dev/sda1 and /dev/sda3, I unmount them using "udiskctl unmount -b /dev/sda1" and "udiskctl unmount -b /dev/sda3"
- if file.iso is the iso to write, I run "sudo dd if=file.iso of=/dev/sda status=progress" (make sure the drive letter is correct, otherwise you will overwrite another disk)

On which computer did you try installing?
