.deb are Debian package files used by Debian based installation 
utilities.

Go to:

http://www.debian.org/releases/stable/installmanual

for installation instructions.

or if you don't want to read all of it, the floppy setup is

http://www.debian.org/releases/stable/i386/ch-install-methods.en.html#s-install-floppies


This is for old, reliable potato release.

Hope this helps,
