OT, but I'd suggest grabbing a debian-installer image (rc3, or if you have spare time and are willing to help out, one of the later builds. Both from http://www.debian.org/devel/debian-installer/) and installing sarge rather than woody. By the sounds of it, sarge reflects your needs more than woody.
