GRUB_GFXMODE line is only for the grub menu itself and NOT for the console screen after that.

Well, so far we have much success.
I have now successfully installed woody from the new isolinux minicd
that is at debian.org alongside win2k on a small partition borrowed from
the win-os hard drive.
All is well - the Xirxom pc-card and dhcp 'just worked' and we are up
