Hi,
Debian installer come in in flavors, one (3 DVD o many CD) could be
installed alone and don't need the net, any way that ask for..., and
you should skip the step...
The package are pretty common and should be in the first CD / DVD just
finish tha basic installation and the install ndiswrapper and the
kernel headers with apt-get from your CD
Good luck

Listers,
I am a Fedora user trying to do my first Debian install (downloaded to CD). It
installs OK but the installer REALLY wants to access the net. In order for that
to happen I have to install ndiswrapper. In order for that to happen I need the
kernel headers which I -think- are not installed. The installer doesn't ask if
Kernel stuff is to be installed so I assume I have to get them from the net. I
tried copying over the ndiswrapper module from Fedora but insmod knows that its
from the wrong kernel.
The installer assumes there is a working net connection during install, not
true in my case.
Basically I need the net to give myself access to the net.
How can I break out of this chicken/egg situation?
regards Jim Bean
