Hello Leslie,
I really reccomend that you get a CD ROM to start out with. I am a
somewhat experienced user, and I still wouldn't know how to install from
ftp from scratch. What with creating and formatting a partition, geting
your initial disks set up (I believe Debian still uses these? it's been a
while) and other things I think ftp install could get very confusing very
fast. Also, the CD ROM gives you hundreds of megs of neat stuff. Even
the bare minimum will take a painfully long time to download over most
links. I don't know about you, but my ISP is way too flaky for that
process to go smoothly.
Take a look at www.cheapbytes.com. They have current CD's very cheap.
You might want to order an O'Rielly book from them as well to make
shipping worthwhile. These are completely worwhile books I have found.
Good Luck!

I like six eggs when starting on a journey. Fried - not poached. And
mind you don't break 'em. I won't eat a broken egg.
