Yes...find out as much as you can about your hardware and if you plan
on connecting to the net ( and I suppose you are) make sure you have
written down all the information you'll need to connect to your ISP
I really liked Dwarf's Guide
http://people.debian.org/~psg/ddg/
the install guides are available from the Debian Doc page
http://www.debian.org/doc/
Also a quick Google search on "Installing Debian" should give you a
few useful hits
...and actually I thought the Debian install was as easy as RH's or
Suse and bit more to my liking since I didn't feel like I was giving
up all power and choice to some cool looking graphic installer.
