Debian dual boot install... easy peasy?

I'm looking for the driver in the debian install stuff...so...I go into
"Configure Device Driver Modules" section, and then in the net drivers, and
I don't see it.  When I try to use "Configure Network", it tells me that no
network device was found etc.  So, thats when I try to add the module.  But
not seeing it, I'm not sure what to do next.

I suppose I can load these modules from a floppy...I believe there is an
option to load additional modules.  Is this what that option is for?

I'll continue to read up on support forums.

Thanks,
Matt
