Hmm, so why not download the latest debian stable from debian.org? Woody and potatoe is not supported anymore, etch is current.

If you say so. Personally I have Debian Etch installed on a AMD K6 300 Mhz (with 2.4 kernel iirc).

This version (http://linux.softpedia.com/progDownload/Debian-GNU-Linux-Etch-Download-10816.html)
is good? What do you think about it?
If your answer is 'YES' how many cds must be downloaded?

If you have a steady Internet/wired connection you can try the "netinst" cd. It downloads everything you need and you can install anything from a single cd.

But otherwise I think you can manage with just the first cd.

Debian is well documented so I recommend you to start reading the documentation if you are new to Linux. You'll for instance find official installation guide on this page:
