You can successfully install debian via ftp and modem, though perhaps not how you would expect to be able to do it. I didn't find the debian installation procedure entirely intuitive; I found a few rough edges there, that could be confusing to a Linux novice. I'd be happy to correspond with you privately on the subject. Christopher W.
