In my experience, debian is a pain to install.. Better to go with a Debian offspring distro and us apt get form there to upgrade. Maybe Xandros is what your looking for.

Very east to install Debian based distros are Mepis and Ubuntu. With Mepis being 99% compatible with deb repositories.

Ubuntu is really nice and is also compatible with deb repositories.
