- System Rescue iso is good for some one-off hacks e.g. disk manipulation but not a good way to do Debian Linux Installation. - Even if you get all three installation DVD images onto that 1TB USB drive, that may still be a less optimal option as you most probably need massive update during or right after the installation.
The least-trouble option, contrary to what it seems, is to take your machine to your friend's place with high speed Internet connection, and do the initial installation there. All other options just defer the problems, which you will bump into sooner or later.
Debian is not 3 DVD images. It is 14 DVD images or 3 BD images. About 60GB total for the images. -- Len Sorensen
