Good.

It only looks that way because you will (at the start) see the same
screens you saw when you installed. The environment is being set up to
allow a rescue to take place. Have faith, continue!
You will arrive at a screen asking for the device to use as the root
file system. This is the partition you have installed Debian to. I have
/dev/sda1
/dev/sda2
/dev/sda5
/dev/sdc1
I know /dev/sda1 has Windows on it and can guess /dev/sdc1 is the USB
stick. /dev/sda2 is the extended partition. By elimination it's
/dev/sda5. There are other ways of proceeding to make a decision on what
is the root file system.
There is only one thing you want on the next screen - "Reinstall the
GRUB boot loader". In my case I would choose /dev/sda when asked.

It isn't right. Surely the network got set up correctly when you first
installed? You are just doing a repeat of this.
