Hello. I'm running Debian on my Netwinder. The image you want should be here:
ftp://ftp.us.debian.org/debian/dists/testing/main/disks-arm/current/netwinder/images-2.88/
This image can be tftp-booted and will do a network install of Debian for you.
You need to do a couple of things first:
(1) Upgrade your Tulip firmware. This is very important to do
first as the module is made for the 2.0x kernel. Find out
how here:
http://www.netwinder.org/cgi-bin/faq.cgi?req=all#7.4(2) Possibly upgrade your Netwinder firmware. I have rev 2.33
which works well for me. Read the firmware HOWTO here:
http://www.netwinder.org/~ralphs/howto/Firmware-HOWTO.htmlOnce you have accomplished this, then go and boot the rescue.bin image. It should work with little trouble, you may need to correct the net-install directories as last time I installed they were wrong. Couple other minor glitches like you may need to recompile your kernel to get 16bpp with the framebuffer, not sure if this has been fixed yet or not. Otherwise it works great! More or less just like X86 Debian except on a Netwinder.

Hi,
I have a NetWinder (still with RedHat installed) I want to convert to Woody. Is there an installation disk-image or something, somewhere ?
Thanks,
