That's great news and actually I am using the same setup every day!

Unfortunately, the Debian developers seem to remove outdated versions of
the ISO on new releases. I was about to point you to Josef's package
updates

  18.09-p1 for Sculpt VC
  18.11    for release 18.11

but those are already outdated since end of January. But you may still
adapt the link in the pkg by yourself like follows in the Leitzentrale
Inspect terminal of your "Used" installation volume (for example
/ahci-0).

- vim /ahci-0/depot/cnuke/raw/download_debian/2018-08-30/init.config
- Find "netinst.iso"
- Replace
  https://cdimage.debian.org/debian-cd/current/amd64/iso-cd/debian-9.5.0-amd64-netinst.iso
  by
  https://cdimage.debian.org/debian-cd/current/amd64/iso-cd/debian-9.7.0-amd64-netinst.iso
- Depending on your Sculpt version you may have to toggle "Use" of the
  installation volume
- Launch "download_debian"

Good luck
