Debian New User



I just recently installed the debian version of linux and now I have a few
question...

1. I downloaded a few extra packaged from the debian www site, now; I use a
dual system (linux on one HD, Win95 on another). When i d/l the files they
had the extension of .Deb and I placed them on floppy. Next started linux
and ran dselect and tried to add the new packages and I could not do it
cause there needed to be some sort of package list for the file/files.
Anyone know what I am takling over here. if pls help.

2. What packages and programs are needed to dial up to isp and log onto the
i-net. And any tips on setting up a modem?

3. Any help on these issues would be appreciated. Thanks Brian........
