Internal ISDN cards need a pile of modules, plus some supporting user-space 
stuff.  I don't think there is any hope of adding this to the woody boot-floppies
at this stage in the game, but it should be possible to support it under
debian-installer if someone wants to do the work.

External TAs should be okay.  I don't know if we ship the modules you need to use
USB modems right now, but it should be easy to add them to the driver disks if
not.  Ethernet and serial versions ought to "just work" already.
