You are obviously the right person to ask, then. Will this method
help me? I can see (slightly fuzzily still at the mo) that I can use
the Knoppix to get the rest of the install carried out. But surely,
once I reboot into the newly installed system, I will once again lose
the NIC driver. It appears that Knoppix and Mandrake have a working
driver for this net-lynx 428X, and Debian doesn't. Or am I missing
the important bit (again...)?

Sounds almost irresistable... You might find me there one day soon.
