Are the CD images provided for Debian 3.1r4 able to do a full, clean install

can use the 3.1r4 CDs to install it. Please RE or CC to my email ad

Problem solved:
I'll post the solution for future references:
I've reinstalled kernel-image-2.4.27-2-386:
# apt-get --reinstall kenrel-image-2.4.27-2-386
And now everything is working just fine.
Thanks for your help.
