OK, I've attached a full copy below.

I think this is it... See the underlined section below. I'll have another
try with a new CD in a bit.

Welcome to Debian GNU/Linux 2.1!
This is the Debian Rescue disk. Keep it once you have installed
your system, as you can boot from it to repair the system on your
hard disk if that ever becomes necessary.
On most systems, you can go ahead and press <ENTER> to begin
installation. You will probably want to try doing that before you try
anything else. If you run into trouble, or if you already have
questions, press the <TAB> key to list alternative boot options or
enter the "help" keyword to show a message about SILO boot commands.
WARNING: You should completely back up all of your hard disks before
proceeding. The installation procedure can completely and
irreversibly erase them! If you haven't made backups yet, remove
the rescue disk from the drive and enter the "halt" keyword
to get back to the monitor.
Debian GNU/Linux comes with ABSOLUTELY NO WARRANTY, to the extent
permitted by applicable law.
This disk uses Linux 2.0.35 (from kernel-image-2.0.35_2.0.35-4)
Press <ENTER> to boot!

Getting a SCSI chain working is perfectly simple if you remember that there
must be exactly three terminations: one on one end of the cable, one on the
far end, and the goat, terminated over the SCSI chain with a silver-handled
knife whilst burning *black* candles. --- Anthony DeBoer
