As I described in an earlier post, "it didn't work" refers to the error
message telling me that, "Configuration of the wireless network failed. Either
I got the name wrong or it is taking too long to connect." Something to that
effect.
I tried to continue on as long as I could, but you eventually get to the point
that you need an internet connection to complete the install.
The install went flawless with Knoppix and Ubuntu. I was reading up on Debian
and I was kind of hoping to use that one. What is the next step?

It's fairly hard to tell when the only information you mention is "it
didn't work"..:-)
What exactly did you do at the network configuration step and what
was/were the error message(s)?
