Debian install

[cage47]

Anyone have an idea how long installing Xfree86 from ftp would take with a 28.8 modem (I know I know but it's my backup test machine)? I have Deb 2.2.18 installed from floppies wanna see how an install this way would work? And which would be the better way deselect or apt-get and if apt-get what would be the command. (I have ppp working already).
