So I try to install debian with a CD-ROM I´ve just make partition on my hard disk and all the partition are mounted ! So during the installation, the software propose to install the operating system kernel and modules. When I have "Select Installation Medium", I choose /cdrom which is on /dev/hdc. After that, the following message : "Path where Debian archive reside /debian", and after "list : Choose from a list of All Archives Paths" ... When I accept the path, after 1 minute, I receive the following error : FLOPPY ERROR : The attempt to extract the drivers floppy failed !

The obvious question for me is here: Are you stuck with the rescue disk? Are you installing from a CDROM? What are the last message which appear on the screen? I think then people should be able to help you. -- Rainer Dorsch Abt. Rechnerarchitektur e-mail:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Uni Stuttgart Tel.: 0711-7816-215
