The text on the Mini-CD page at:

   http://www.debian.org/CD/netinst/

is unclear.  Current text in paragraph two is:

   The network install assumes that either an analogue PPP dialup
   connection to your Internet provider, or Internet access via Ethernet
   (possibly using a PCMCIA card in your laptop) is available. It does not
   support internal ISDN cards - sorry! At some point, we hope to provide
   official credit card sized CD images which also work for installing with
   internal ISDN cards. Unfortunately, at the moment there are only
   unofficial images made by some people:

To me, this says that the list of the following ISO images are targeted to
people who want to run internal ISDN cards.  Perhaps something like the
following:

   The mini-CD install assumes that you have a network connection either
   through analogue PPP dial-up or Ethernet connectivity.  For laptops,
   this may be via a PCMCIA modem or Ethernet adapter card.  Internal ISDN
   cards are not currently supported - sorry!

   At the moment there are no official netinstall images.  However, the
   following unofficial images are available:

No, thanks. I've changed the text like this:

    <p>Note: There are currently no official net install/mini-CD
    images available.</p>
    
    <p>The network install assumes that you have a connection to the
    Internet either using analogue PPP dial-up or using an ethernet
    connection. This may be through a PCMCIA adapter on laptops. 
    Internal (PCI) ISDN cards are not supported - sorry!</p>
    
    <p>The following unofficial net install images are available:</p>

This is basically what you proposed, I just replaced "ISP connection"
with "internet connection".

Cheers,

  Richard
