Is /dev/sdb1 mounted? What is the output of mount (with no arguments)?
You probably have to Alt-F2 to a new vt and mount /dev/sdb1 somewhere,
then specify the path to the debian archive from there. This is how I
installed the base system on my PC. In my case, the base_21.tgz file was

If linux actually supports the filesystem that MacOS uses properly, there should
be no problem creating directories in either OS and have the other OS read it

Lorenz,
This may be an erroneous answer, but on my system it is lp0. As I
understand it, /dev/lp0 translates to LPT1:. Unless you have two parallel
ports, you might not have a valid /dev/lp1 (LPT2:). Could this be the
problem ? I think mine gave the same error when I tried to print to it ...
