debs,

i'm trying to install potato on a 486 box (to be used as a firewall).  i want 
to install via cd from an external cdrom.

i get to the point where it needs to "install operating system kernel and 
modules."  i tell the box that i'm using "mounted" as the "medium" used to 
install the system, as it wouldn't be /dev/fd0 or /dev/fd1, right?   

i have to tell it where ~/images-1.44/rescue.bin resides, but i don't know how 
to name this external cdrom.

i've tried copying the files from ~/images-1.44 to the harddrive, but when i 
tell it find rescue.bin in /dev/hda1/<directory where files from ~/images-1.44 
have been copied>, it "won't go."

suggestions?

ia, t.
