You are obviously the right person to ask, then. Will this method help me? I can see (slightly fuzzily still at the mo) that I can use the Knoppix to get the rest of the install carried out. But surely, once I reboot into the newly installed system, I will once again lose the NIC driver. It appears that Knoppix and Mandrake have a working driver for this net-lynx 428X, and Debian doesn't.
