Ok. When the first screen from the netinstaller is loaded, I mean its the language selection, you could press ALT+F2 to change to a terminal.
After that press enter to activate the terminal an enter lspci. Theoretic this should print an output like that in my screenshot that I append here.
(Its from a virtual machine). Maybe we could see the networkcard....

What does 'lspci -n | grep 0200' show on the box? That should get a
list of all ethernet devices.
Are you trying to install with netinstaller iso or have you setup a system from full media?
If is of course very possible that the 2.6.26 kernel in Debian 5.0 does
not support the network card if the machine is less than 2 years old.
If so there isn't much choice other than use a newer kernel (2.6.32 is
in backports so it would be easy to install and use).
Yes.
