I have just received a Dell Inspiron 530N pre-installed with Ubuntu. I
am now trying to figure out how to install debian on it.
The system will "boot" from the CD-Drive but when the kernel takes over
it doesn't have the driver for this CD-Drive. I have used knoppix, etch
liveCD and network install cds. I then downloaded the first testing cd
and the kernel found the cd player. But then it couldn't find the
network card.
Your system has a SATA CD-ROM drive, according to:

I don't know why your Debian Etch network install CD does not detect
your CD-ROM drive. Is it an older version?
If it is, I recommend downloading a Debian Etch full install CD and
trying that. Don't worry about the network card for now, I'm sure you
can get it working.
