Hi,
is it possible to test the to see if this problem still manifests with
the 2.6.12 kernels, such as linux-image-2.6.12-1-686, that are in
unstable?

The solution I found to have first debian installation running was the
following:
I downloaded the netinst CD for the testing version (2.6 kernel)
-I desactivated the onboard card (Realtek, just to bound my problems, at
this moment I don't know if it was neccesary, may be not)
-during the installation process, no errors were reported but none network
card was configured properly on /etc/network/interfaces, I did it by hand
-routing table empty, I had to put a rule neccesary there
-/etc/resolv.conf was nos created on the installation process, I had to do
it,
Just after that, I started to download the packages from Internet.
Everything was find after all this.
Somebody on the users list answered me that I can install the stable version
with the 2.6, sincerelly I don't have the information how to swicth the
kernel on the installtion process, I asked for that information 'cause the
most I want is to have the stable version running properly.
I think that the answer for your question is YES, with the 2.6 kernel
everything worked fine, only the test for the Realtek interface left.
Best regards
Enediel
