I just tried the installer on my system: Alpha Station 400 4/233
It boot's fine but when it comes to identify the installation media 
(CD-ROM I booted from) it fails to find it.

I have the cd-rom connected to a sym 53c875 controller and the cd-rom is 
 a Plextor Ultraplex 32x

This machine is running Debian stable with kernel 2.4.31 with no problems.
