Problem with installer - please help



Hi again. Well I have decided to take the "debian challenge" and install 2.1

The only problem is when I boot up and select my media, modules etc from the
bootable CDROM:

I go to install lilo and am told that there is a problem with my hard disk
size.  This is not true as there are less than 1027 cylinders and SuSE 6.1
and Redhat both had no trouble installing from it. Then I planned to use a
floppy to get running and sort out lilo later. I was consistently told that
the installer was unable to make a boot floppy. No other dist has ever had
any trouble with this.

What am I doing wrong?  Could this be related to one of the modules I am
loading?  Please help....
