I believe Progeny uses its own installation. You'll probably want to go
bother them with this.
If you're installing from Debian boot-floppies, you'll need the compact
flavor floppies.
<http://http.us.debian.org/debian/dists/potato/main/disks-i386/current/images-1.44/compact/>
I only need rescue.bin and root.bin to get my DL360s on the air.
However, this gives you 2.2.19 and no-SMP.
The Debian Installation Manual is at
<http://www.debian.org/releases/stable/#new-inst>.
Best of luck.
