Comments/Problems:
<The initial boot from CD works fine and I can get to the point of detection of hardware. After detection of hardware, it list several packages that are not available and what Hardware require them but states that continuing with install will make them available later. After clicking continue it fails to read the CD. Error given says this is probably because CD is not inserted, however it is. I burned the CD from image debian-31r0a-i386-binary-1 which I downloaed from a torrent. I've burned three different copies and all three do the same thing. I'm not sure if the missing packages is causing a problem or if my CD Drive is malfunctioning in some way. Please Respond with help if possible>
