Have a look at there: http://www.debian.org/CD/ You can find Images for Potato, Woody and Sid via HTTP, FTP, rsync and other methods > - I very, very highly doubt that the cs89x0_cs driver is included in the > Debian distribution.

It the driver is really not included in the distribution (propetiary?), just compile for yourself after installation as you did with your slackware. > There is also the fact that I can't boot from CD on that machine, but I > suppose that is rather unimportant...
