Ok , this is a long one.
I am new to installing Debian Linux. I tried to install it by
directly connecting to the ftp site using ppp . But I kept getting

PCI NE2000 cards are supported directly in kernels >= 2.0.34. In earlier
kernels, they work fine using the ISA NE2000 driver. Unfortunately some
NE2000 clones are more compatible than others. Mine (generic with Realtek
8029 chip) works fine with either driver.
