 problems with installing Debian from floppies... I have problem with those debian floppies... I have: Rescue (Boot), Root, Linux and driver 1-4 disks. And when I try to start installation I insert Boot disk and then Linux disk and kaboom. It will load sometime, but after that it will start doing weird thigs. It shows a message style of: 0210 FF:4346 AX:4363 DD:4236 and it does it until hell freezes over. I have tried to write that linux.bin to other disks, but since every floppy I have are new I don't think that problem is in those floppies. So it must be in that linux.bin floppy image. So what do I do now? I have tried to download that linux floppy again and writed it but it didn't worked. So what do I do now? I am experienced Linux user with Gentoo, Redhat and other in famous distros and I'd like to give a try for Debian since one of my friend told me about it. But looks like this is it. I'll have to wait for my computer components arrive from post before I can burn debian dvd...  -Antti-      |

If you already have a version of Linux working on the machine, with networking operational, it may be possible to avoid using floppies altogether. I have successfully installed a Debian system that way. R. |
