:> Hello to all
:> I am a Linux newbie trying to figure out how to install packages for my
system, i downloaded the debian linux by ftp on 7 disks the rescue floppy, the
custom boot one, the base ones and the drivers one, then during the
installation process i didn't use dselect i just continued, now my question is,
do i have anything in those disks that i can add to my computer? or those disks
just contained the files that linux installed? and another question, in the
case that i need to download packages via ftp, i need to know how do i do that?
i use windows 95 to connect to the internet and that's how i download the
files, but i can't download them to my linux parition they are downloaded to
the msdos one, how can i port these files to linux? or how can i tell dselect
to retrieve the files from there?

:Make sure that all the internet protocols are either in your kernel or
:added as modules during the initial install. (PPP and TCP/IP modules)

How do I add more modules after the intial installation? Thanks!
