You might try rei

be "cleaner" just to create a new local user and log in as that new user

Debian. Can you ping anything (like "ping 8.8.8.8"? Ctrl-C to stop the ping
attempts.)? If so, we can probably pick up the pieces from here (try
"tasksel", and installing the X11 windowing system/Gnome/KDE/etc). If you

problem.

Of course, for this to work, you'll need access to the Debian repository,
which means one of the three solutions already suggested: 1) different
(non-free) installer, 2) a wired connection, or 3) a fuller CD/DVD/local
repository.
