Sarge: Debian-Installer from ISO-CD doesn't work from floppy-boot ed i386-PC



Hi Debian-Sarge interested community,

I downloaded the complete Sarge-ISO-CD-Images (11 pieces, dated with 21. September 2003) and the 
floppy-image.img and cd_drivers-image.img, dated with: 24. September 2003 from
http://people.debian.org/~sjogren/d-i/images/daily/
to install it:
the installation from actual CDs is not possible, because the Debian-Installer Main Menu from above 
mentioned floppy-images allows / runs only in an endless-loop
 
- Load installer modules
- Execute a shell

Some HW will be recognized and modules will be loaded but the inserted 
Sarge-ISO-CD will not become mounted.

For continueing this installation from Sarge-ISO-CD,
does anyone know, how to proceed ??

Of course my various Pentium I-PCs allow only floppy and harddisk-booting,
and an access to Internet via Debian-Linux first needs to be installed and configured, 
to get further comfortable Sarge-installation-access per netinstall. 

Many thanks in advance,

Christoph
