Hi, I have a Dell Optiplex Computer, no floppy drive and the hard disk is a ST3120026AS ATA disk. I have Fedora running on it. I would like to install Debian on another partition. I am new to Debian. I have tried to install Woody and ran into problems, even when booting bf24. I am trying now to install Sarge, I downloaded only the first CD from 3 different sites. BTW the date of the file is Jan 2003, Is that correct? 1.When checking the integrity of the CD, they all fail, the message is "The ./dists/sarge/main/binary-i386/Release file failed the MD4."
2. I tried to continue the install. Booting from the 'bad' CD. I get the error " Error while running modprobe -v floppy" Since I don't have a floppy, I ignored the message and continued. Then the installation keeps looping to the menu item " partition a hard drive" I suppose that I don't have a the driver for the disk. How do I get the driver without a floppy? Any help will be appreciated. Thanks Shoshana Rosenthal [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
