Problems installing woody

["Francisco Fialho" <francisco.fialho@liveware.com.br>]

Hi everybody,

I`m just beggining using Linux, and decided to start with
Debian. Heard a lot about how good it was and everything :-).

I`m trying to install  woody ( Debian 3.0) at an ACER 4300 with Celeron 500
processor,
128 mem, and onboard video (SIS530/620) and network drivers(SIS900)...

when I finished my first installation I could ping the local and external
network just
fine, but I cannot enter in graphic mode. I already did an apt-get install
in almost
all of the xserver-* that I found...:-/

I even downloaded ( using another machine) the xfree86 4.2.0 and the 2.4.18
kernel,
but I can`t mount my cdrom.

I tried to mount it with the #mount /dev/cdrom /cdrom
and it returns me: /dev/cdrom is not a block device.
my /etc/fstab has the following lines for the cdrom:
/dev/cdrom            /cdrom        iso9660    ro,user,noauto        0     0

I would be glad if someone could help me putting up the xserver and the
cdrom!

regards!

Francisco
