Although I am quoting here www.debian.org/releases/stable/i386/install I
believe you should read it all before attempting to do anything.

If you are using a web browser on a networked computer to read this
document, you can probably retrieve the files by selecting their names in your
web browser. Depending on your browser you may need to take special action
to download directly to a file, in raw binary mode. For example, in Netscape
you need to hold the shift key when clicking on the URL to retrieve the file.
Files can be downloaded from the URLs in this document, or you can retrieve
them from
http://http.us.debian.org/debian/dists/potato/main/disks-i386/current/,
or the corresponding directory on any of the Debian mirror sites.
