This does not sound right. AFAIK, I did not include CDROM detection support on the disks you downloaded yet. Also, when I tried the install, it basically ran through, without presenting me the main-menu at all. It could probably help if you could describe what happened during the install a little more detailed. > another time it looped on the partitionning step.

After you installed installer modules, you should have a standard fdisk. At least I got that when I tried those floppies. -- CYa, Mario | Debian Developer <URL:http://debian.org/> | Get my public key via finger [EMAIL PROTECTED] | 1024D/7FC1A0854909BCCDBE6C102DDFFC022A6B113E44
