I don't know much but I will surely try to help you out.
First, where did you get the distribution? Is it on CD? Did you
FTP it? Having installed Slackware a number of times before I learned of
Debian, I know this can be a frustrating experience. Personally, this is
my take on the situation: I would ftp the rescue, drivers, and base disks
from one of the debian sites... I always use ftp.caldera.com in
/pub/mirrors/debian. Having installed Debian three days ago using that
method, completely without flaw (except X, but that's a whole new ball of
wax), I can only say that I think it should work for you, too.
Give it a try, and let us know how it goes!
