I dont really get you
you need help in installing debian woody ...

or do u need help getting a graphical ftp for debian woody

i dont know what is an ftp program anyway
but u can get it like uniball said

as for installing debian it self
check this link it's what i used to learn how to install debian
http://www.osnews.com/story.php?news_id=2016

after i installed debian for the first time X (Xwindows , xfree, what ever we should call it) would not start

the problem i had was that i chose yes (or no, but i think yes, ya3ni i chose the wrong answer)
for step 4 from here -- Configuring the framebuffer --
http://www.osnews.com/story.php?news_id=2016&page=9

of course i reinstalled debian kolo to choose the other answer
which is totally not needed
i could have run

dpkg-reconfigure --priority=low xserver-xfree86
for x version 4
this command will allow u reconfigure x
but it will ask u everythin tany, which can be boring

so u can make the right change in this file
/etc/X11/XF86Config-4

which will be easier , but i dont know which line , or how to fix/change this option directly in the file
maybe uniball knows ....

anyway good luck
