 I booted the computer from the CD without problems. The computer asked about
 language, country and keyboard, which seemed to be OK. Next came a message
 No kernel modules found. This probably is due to a mismatch between the
 kernel used by this version of the installer and the kernel version in the
 archive [..]

That could be a hick-up in the daily build.

My advice is to retry with a recent build of the debian-installer

 When I try to continue the installation, the installer cannot detect the
 Realtek-8029 thernet card.

The hardware detection software depends on hardware IDs.
Recent electronica like PCI and USB devices does have such IDs.
ISA cards, like Realtek-8029, don't have it.

You have the manual load the kernel module.
 (something like `modprobe ne2000` at VT2 )
