install problem from CDROM



I've been using Debian on a i386 platform and loving it, so decided to
try and get it loaded on an old SparcStation 20 I have laying around.

I'm booted it up to a Debian Rescue floppy, and then the root.bin, and
got the basic install screens going o.k.  After doing the partitioning,
etc, it came to the screen where it loads from CD.  At this point I
inserted the CD and hit enter and got the following message:

"Floppy Error:  The attempt to extract the Rescue Floppy from disk
failed  <continue>"

Hitting continue takes me back to the Installation Main Menu and I can
get no further.

I'm not really sure what this error is telling me. It seems to be trying
to extract a Resuce Floppy from my CDROM?  Do I have a bad CDROM copy?

Thanks
Kevin
