trouble mounting LMS 206 CD-ROM to complete debian load from CD-ROM



I got debian-1.2 from cheapbytes.
I am trying to install it on an old Quantex 486DX, vintage 1992/1994
with a LMS206 CD-ROM connected to a JAZZ sound board appropriated
from a Gateway. Windows was upgraded to Windows95.

---------------
first problem:
The initial load from floppies went fine, including picking the
LMS 206 driver, except that I did not know what options to use
when installing the driver.

The trouble came when I used dselect or when I tried to mount
the cdrom.  An error message popped up
       "SONY: CDU535 ... address is already in use."
In the docs I found both devices use 0x340 and IRQ11.
The sound board and the CD-ROM drive both say LMS.

--------------
Second problem:  I took my computer apart to check the identity
of the CD-ROM drive.  When I put it back again, it would not boot.
It gave one long beep and eight short beeps.  I don't have the AMI
bios documentation to tell me what the beeps mean, but I figured
it must be the power supply.  I bought a new power supply, but
the wires were not long enough to reach the P8-P9 plugs on the
mother board.
-----
TIA
