I also just purged dpkg-ftp accidentally but I can't find it anywhere! Is
dpkg-ftp only in the base package included on the boot floppies?

I believe there's a command line linux loader you can use to boot linux.

I'm having a lot of trouble getting Debian on a 486 box. It's a
pretty generic machine, with an IDE hard drive & cdrom, AMD 486 CPU
on a motherboard with the Opti chipset. Special kernel 0 doesn't get
anywhere at all. THe standard kernel gets to this point:
Loading.

Sounds to me like you might have unseated one of the cards, most
likely SCSI, or loosened a SCSI cable. You might want to check that.
Also make sure all your termination switches (if any) are right.

I have a single machine on the net (zachs.place.org)
with ip aliases to make it also be (eth0:0) juggling.place.org
and (eth0:1) www.worldwind.com. Which all works fine.
Except... that anywhere I telnet to from that machine
sees me as coming from www.worldwind.com instead of from
zachs.place.org
I recently had a memory problem that I solved by reseating the SIMMs.
I didn't remove them. I just wiggled them. If you try it, be sure to
protect against static discarge.
